Post 1963 Swedish Sweden Södra Skånska / South Scanian Regiment Armoured Regiment Arm Patch

South Scanian Regimental Unit designation. Removed from uniform.

South Scanian Regiment (Swedish: Södra skånska regementet), designation P 7, is a Swedish Army armoured regiment that traces its origins back to 1811. It was converted from an infantry regiment in 1963 and renamed from South Scania Infantry Regiment (Södra skånska infanteriregementet). The regiment's soldiers were originally recruited from the region of Scania (Skåne), and it is currently garrisoned in Revingehed outside Lund, in Skåne County.

The regiment was converted from South Scania Infantry Regiment to an armored regiment in 1963 and was given the name South Scanian Regiment. In 1982, the regiment carried out a major reorganization when all training activities were transferred to Revingehed and the Scanian Anti-Aircraft Corps (Lv 4) moved into the barracks in Ystad.
