no its possibly Colours, Regulations prevent the taking of colours into battle

'Colours are the memorials to the great deeds of a regiment and the symbol of its spirit as expressed in those deeds.'
Umbrellas.
(Sir Thomas Picton famously ignored the order, and was killed at Waterloo in full civvies, with top hat...)
Colours were taken into battle until around 1879
