 The Khaki Glengarry was not worn outside of Canada and was discontinued in 1916. However, the CEF appears to have briefly issued khaki Glengarries as shown in this photograph of Private Herbert George Laight of the 42nd Battalion.

Although in this photo Herbert G. Laight is not wearing collar badges, his service records held by his family indicate that he was in fact, with the 42nd Battalion CEF. He is clearly wearing a khaki Glengarry with a five-button jacket in this photograph. Note that his jacket has no rifle patches.
