Originally designated the 100th Regiment of Foot and later the 92nd, the regiment was officially named "The Gordon Highlanders" in 1881. Many of the original recruits were drawn from the Gordon estates. The early recruitment campaign was assisted by the 4th Duke’s wife, the Duchess of Gordon (Duchess Jean). The Duchess is said to have offered a kiss as an incentive to join her husband's Regiment.The Gordons were formed during the French Revolutionary Wars. They saw action against the armies of France, first at Egmont-op-Zee in Holland in 1799, then in the Egypt expedition of 1801, and in the long campaigns and many battles of the Peninsular War in Spain from 1808-14. The Regiment then played a prominent role in the final defeat of Napoleon at Quatre Bras and Waterloo in 1815.In 1994, after exactly 200 years of service, The Gordon Highlanders was amalgamated with the Queen’s Own Highlanders to form a new Regiment named The Highlanders (Seaforth, Gordons and Camerons).In 2006, The Highlanders was merged with Scotland’s five other infantry regiments to form The Royal Regiment of Scotland.Renowned as a courageous fighting force with an exceptional reputation for good conduct, professionalism and steadfastness, the legacy of The Gordons lives on through The Highlanders, 4th Battalion, and The Royal Regiment of Scotland.The Gordon Highlanders is one of the great names in Scottish history and one of the most celebrated regiments of the British Army.A view of the amazing Scottish scenery taken from around Scotland.Accompanied by the music Scotland the Brave by The Gordon Highlanders.Music Available @itunesI hope you enjoy viewing :)

From 1704 to 1714 one of these was kept in the Scottish Highlands to keep order there. The Regiment as a whole also remained in Scotland during the early 1700s until its 1709 posting to Spain.During the First Jacobite Rebellion of 1715 it was on garrison duty in England and during the Second, 30 years later, both battalions briefly redeployed back from Flanders to protect London, with a detachment from 1st Battalion also being sent to pursue the rebel army to Carlisle on horseback. Its Flanders engagements during the 1740s included Dettingen, Fontenoy and Lauffeld.The regiment's service during the 1750s included both the Germany campaign and amphibious raids on the Normandy coast. The following decade saw it and the other two foot guard regiments send 15 men per company to a composite Guards unit designed to fight in the American Revolutionary War. That unit fought at Brooklyn, Germantown, Guilford Courthouse and Yorktown.The wars against France in the 1790s and early 1800s saw the regiment back in the Low Countries in both 1793 and 1809, as well as raiding the Spanish coast and fighting in Egypt and Spain. Its light companies garrisoned Hougoumont during the Battle of Waterloo and went on to keep order in France, Ireland and Manchester during the immediate post-war period. That period also saw them become the British Army's only Fusilier Guard regiment in 1831.One officer and three men from the unit won the Victoria Cross for their conduct at the Alma in the Crimea in 1854. It also fought at Inkerman and Sevastopol. The regiment was mostly based in London for the rest of the 19th century, though it did send 1st Battalion to Egypt in 1882 and the Ashanti War in west Africa in 1829, and 2nd Battalion to Canada in 1862 and to the Sudan in 1885. That period also saw the unit drop the 'Fusilier' from its name in 1877.Both battalions deployed to the Boer War and to the Western Front of the First World War and it also sent detachments to the siege of Sidney Street in 1911. Both the 1st and 2nd Battalions saw service in North Africa during the Second World War, with the former also going to Norway and Italy and the 2nd to North West Europe.The regiment's post-war deployments have also been varied, ranging from Malaya, Borneo and Kenya to frequent deployments to Northern Ireland and action at Tumbledown during the Falklands War.

We commemorated the year with a number of celebratory events.Formed in 1860, the Band also holds the distinction of being the oldest volunteer Pipe Band in the World, the oldest Pipe Band in the World still wearing the uniform of its inception and the oldest pipe band in the World outside of the Regular British Army.While we are proud of the Band's long and unique history, our feet are firmly planted in the Twenty-First Century and confidently marching forwards. While we undertake many formal military duties throughout the year, for and on behalf of the Regiment, we have also performed live on stage at the O2 Arena with the Manic Street Preachers and have shared a stage with the likes of Snow Patrol, The Kaiser Chiefs and Michael MacIntyre.In the last few years we have undertaken tours to France, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Holland, Italy and Gibraltar as well as appearing at many high profile events in the UK, including Beating Retreat on Horseguards Parade, The Windsor Military Tattoo, The Royal Caledonian Ball and The Lord Mayors Show.The Pipes and Drums have appeared in various movies (including 'Tunes of Glory' and 'The Longest Day'); have performed in stage plays and on national television and radio; have two current CD releases and have appeared in newspaper, magazine and television advertisements (the latest of which you can see here).We will be entering a number of competitions in the coming season on both sides of The Border as we continually strive to improve the band.We are always on the lookout for new members who wish to be part of this unique blend of military and civilian history and we welcome drummers and pipers who can contribute to a band with strong traditions and a healthy future.Those wishing to join the Pipes and Drums are not required to become serving members of the Territorial Army but we will support fully any who wish to do so. The current band is a mix of civilians, serving TA soldiers and ex-regular army/TA members. There is also no requirement to be of Scottish descent.A view of the amazing Scottish country taken from across Scotland !

How sweet the soundThat saved a wretch like me!I once was lost, but now am found;Was blind, but now I see.’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,And grace my fears relieved;How precious did that grace appearThe hour I first believed.Through many dangers, toils and snares,I have already come;’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,And grace will lead me home.The Lord has promised good to me,His Word my hope secures;He will my Shield and Portion be,As long as life endures.Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,And mortal life shall cease,I shall possess, within the veil,A life of joy and peace.The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,The sun forbear to shine;But God, who called me here below,Will be forever mine.When we’ve been there ten thousand years,Bright shining as the sun,We’ve no less days to sing God’s praiseThan when we’d first begun.I hope you enjoy viewing :)

🎵💥Farewell To The Creeks💥Turriff & District Pipe Band💥🎵 glenzboyz 2019-07-12 | A view of the amazing Scottish scenery taken from across Scotland accompanied by the music Farewell To The Creeks Performed by Turriff & District Pipe Band."Farewell to the Creeks" is a well-known north country tune composed by Pipe Major James 'Pipie' Robertson of Boyne, Banffshire, in 1915 when he was a prisoner of war in Germany. According to Norman Kennedy, the 'Creeks' refers to the Native-American tribe the Creek Indians and not streams. It is the vehicle for Hamish Henderson's popular song "The Highland Division's Farewell to Sicily," also called "Banks of Sicily," composed while he was Intelligence Officer for the Highland Division in World War II. G. W. Lockhart (in Fiddles and Folk, 1998) relates that Henderson had been viewing the smoke curling from Mt. Etna's crater in the distance behind the Pipes and Drums of the division's 153 Brigade, when the band launched into "Farewell to the Creeks." "Without hindrance," said Henderson, "the words came flowing to me."The pipie is dozie, the pipie is fey-He winna come roon for his vino the day.The sky ow'r Messina is unco an' grey,And a' the bricht chaulmers are eerie."Banks of Sicily" was the first recording made by the Scottish group the Whistlebinkies, on a Hamish Herderson compilation album in 1976.

Archie MacKenzie of Dumbarton Performed by the Pipes & Drums Of The Regimental Band Of The Black Watch.The Black Watch (Royal Highland Regiment) was a Scottish line infantry regiment of the British Army in existence from 1881 (as the Royal Highland Regiment (Black Watch)) until 2006. The regiment was created in 1881, as the Black Watch (Royal Highlanders), by the amalgamation of the 42nd (Royal Highland) Regiment of Foot and the 73rd (Perthshire) Regiment of Foot.As part of the Scottish Division, it was the senior regiment of the Highland Brigade. The regiment's name came from the dark tartan that they wore and from its role to "watch" the Highlands. The 'Black Watch' was originally just a nickname for the 42nd Regiment of Foot, but was used more and more so that, in 1881, when the 42nd amalgamated with the 73rd Regiment of Foot, the new regiment was named the 'Black Watch (Royal Highlanders)'. The uniform changed over time, but the nickname has been more enduring. The regimental motto was Nemo me impune lacessit (no one attacks me with impunity). The Royal Stewart Tartan was worn by the regimental pipers to reflect the status of 'Royal' regiment.In 2006 the regiment was merged with the Royal Scots Borderers, the Royal Highland Fusiliers (Princess Margaret's Own Glasgow and Ayrshire Regiment), the Highlanders (Seaforth, Gordons and Camerons) and the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders to form the Royal Regiment of Scotland, becoming the Black Watch, 3rd Battalion of the Royal Regiment of Scotland.The Black Watch was formed as part of the Childers Reforms in 1881 when the 42nd Royal Highland Regiment (The Black Watch) was amalgamated with the 73rd (Perthshire) Foot to form two battalions of the newly named Black Watch (Royal Highlanders).During the First World War the 25 battalions of Black Watch fought mainly in France and Flanders, except for the 2nd Battalion which fought in Mesopotamia and Palestine, and the 10th Battalion which was in the Balkans. Only the 1st and 2nd battalions were regulars. A number of authors state that the regiment was given the nickname "Ladies from Hell" ("Die Damen aus der Hölle") by German troops, allegedly on account of their kilts and fighting qualities, although it is reported that no German sources to support the claim have been found. (Scottish troops wore kilts up until 1940).Battalions of the Black Watch fought in almost every major action that the British military was engaged in during the Second World War. Most notably engaging in the Battle of Dunkirk, the Battle of Normandy, and fighting as Chindits (42 and 73 columns) during the Burma Campaign. The Black Watch was fiercely defeated by German Fallschirmjäger and Gebirgsjäger during the Battle of Crete, in May 1941. The regiment was the first to cross the Rhine and into Germany during the Allied advance in 1945. After the war, in 1948, the two regular battalions were merged into one.The regiment won honours after the Battle of the Hook during the Korean War in November 1952, and were subsequently involved in peacekeeping in various parts of the world; the same activity for which the regiment was raised 250 years earlier.During the state funeral of John F. Kennedy in November 1963, nine bagpipers from the regiment were invited to travel to the United States and participate in the funeral procession from the White House to the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle.

Although there is no official national anthem of Scotland, "Flower of Scotland" is one of a number of songs which fulfil this role, along with the older "Scots Wha Hae", and "Scotland the Brave", amongst others. Roy Williamson of the folk group the Corries wrote both the lyrics and music for the song. The words refer to the victory of the Scots, led by Robert the Bruce, over England's Edward II at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. O Flower of Scotland, When will we see Your like again, That fought and died for, Your wee bit Hill and Glen, And stood against him, Proud Edward's Army, And sent him homeward, To think again. The Hills are bare now, And Autumn leaves lie thick and still, O'er land that is lost now, Which those so dearly held, That stood against him, Proud Edward's Army, And sent him homeward, To think again. Those days are past now, And in the past they must remain, But we can still rise now, And be the nation again, That stood against him, Proud Edward's Army, And sent him homeward, To think again.

May they Rest In Peace.Flowers of the Forest performed by the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards.The Flowers of the ForestA lament for the army of James IV, the flower of Scottish manhood, slain with their king on the field of Flodden, September 1513. The composition of this song began with a fragment of a very old ballad. Mrs Patrick Cockburn of Ormiston drew on this fragment to write a full song. Then in the mid 18th century Miss Jane Elliot, daughter of Sir Gilbert Elliot of Minto, Lord Chief Justice Clerk of Scotland, drew on Mrs Cockburn's work to make this lyric a much finer piece of work.'The pipe tune is well known to anyone who has attended a Remembrance Day service in Scotland, but the song is all too seldom heard nowadays.'The Scots had in 1513 invaded England to support their allies, the French.On 9 September 1513 the Scots army, under King James IV, faced the English forces of King Henry VIII under the command of Thomas Howard, Earl of Surrey. The battle was ferocious and bloody - men were felled by artillery, arrows, pikes, bills and swords. Around 14,000 men died, including James IV, the last British king to die in battle.

🎵💥The Black Bear Salute💥1st Battalion Black Watch💥🎵 glenzboyz 2018-09-21 | The Black Bear Salute Performed by the Pipes & Drums Of The 1st Battalion Black Watch.The Black Watch (Royal Highland Regiment) was a Scottish line infantry regiment of the British Army in existence from 1881 (as the Royal Highland Regiment (Black Watch)) until 2006. The regiment was created in 1881, as the Black Watch (Royal Highlanders), by the amalgamation of the 42nd (Royal Highland) Regiment of Foot and the 73rd (Perthshire) Regiment of Foot.As part of the Scottish Division, it was the senior regiment of the Highland Brigade. The regiment's name came from the dark tartan that they wore and from its role to "watch" the Highlands. The 'Black Watch' was originally just a nickname for the 42nd Regiment of Foot, but was used more and more so that, in 1881, when the 42nd amalgamated with the 73rd Regiment of Foot, the new regiment was named the 'Black Watch (Royal Highlanders)'. The uniform changed over time, but the nickname has been more enduring. The regimental motto was Nemo me impune lacessit (no one attacks me with impunity). The Royal Stewart Tartan was worn by the regimental pipers to reflect the status of 'Royal' regiment.In 2006 the regiment was merged with the Royal Scots Borderers, the Royal Highland Fusiliers (Princess Margaret's Own Glasgow and Ayrshire Regiment), the Highlanders (Seaforth, Gordons and Camerons) and the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders to form the Royal Regiment of Scotland, becoming the Black Watch, 3rd Battalion of the Royal Regiment of Scotland.The Black Watch was formed as part of the Childers Reforms in 1881 when the 42nd Royal Highland Regiment (The Black Watch) was amalgamated with the 73rd (Perthshire) Foot to form two battalions of the newly named Black Watch (Royal Highlanders).During the First World War the 25 battalions of Black Watch fought mainly in France and Flanders, except for the 2nd Battalion which fought in Mesopotamia and Palestine, and the 10th Battalion which was in the Balkans. Only the 1st and 2nd battalions were regulars. A number of authors state that the regiment was given the nickname "Ladies from Hell" ("Die Damen aus der Hölle") by German troops, allegedly on account of their kilts and fighting qualities, although it is reported that no German sources to support the claim have been found. (Scottish troops wore kilts up until 1940).Battalions of the Black Watch fought in almost every major action that the British military was engaged in during the Second World War. Most notably engaging in the Battle of Dunkirk, the Battle of Normandy, and fighting as Chindits (42 and 73 columns) during the Burma Campaign. The Black Watch was fiercely defeated by German Fallschirmjäger and Gebirgsjäger during the Battle of Crete, in May 1941. The regiment was the first to cross the Rhine and into Germany during the Allied advance in 1945. After the war, in 1948, the two regular battalions were merged into one.The regiment won honours after the Battle of the Hook during the Korean War in November 1952, and were subsequently involved in peacekeeping in various parts of the world; the same activity for which the regiment was raised 250 years earlier.During the state funeral of John F. Kennedy in November 1963, nine bagpipers from the regiment were invited to travel to the United States and participate in the funeral procession from the White House to the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle. They performed The Brown Haired Maiden, The Badge of Scotland, The 51st Highland Division, and The Barren Rocks of AdenIt was the last British military unit to leave Hong Kong in 1997 and played a prominent role in the handover ceremony.

🎵💥2nd Battalion Scots Guards💥Crags Of Tumbledown/Falkland Palace💥🎵 glenzboyz 2018-08-24 | During the Falklands War in 1982 the main force of the Scots Guards began its advance on the western side of Mount Tumbledown. During the course of the battle in the early hours of 14 June 1982, men of the 2nd Battalion launched a bayonet charge on the stout Argentinian defenders which resulted in bitter and bloody fighting, and was one of the last bayonet charges by the British Army.After the battle, Pipe Major James Riddell of 2 Scots Guards stood near the top of the mountain and played his bagpipes. He played a quick march he had composed "on the back of a fag packet" during the battle, following a long tradition in which Pipe Majors were encouraged "to write tunes to commemorate any actions in which their regiments have been engaged". He named the tune The Crags of Tumbledown Mountain.A view of the amazing Scottish country taken from across Scotland.

🎵💥Scotland the Brave💥Gordon Highlanders💥🎵 glenzboyz 2018-08-10 | The Gordon Highlanders was raised in 1794 by the 4th Duke of Gordon as a regiment of Highland Foot (infantry). Originally designated the 100th Regiment of Foot and later the 92nd, the regiment was officially named "The Gordon Highlanders" in 1881. Many of the original recruits were drawn from the Gordon estates. The early recruitment campaign was assisted by the 4th Duke’s wife, the Duchess of Gordon (Duchess Jean). The Duchess is said to have offered a kiss as an incentive to join her husband's Regiment.The Gordons were formed during the French Revolutionary Wars. They saw action against the armies of France, first at Egmont-op-Zee in Holland in 1799, then in the Egypt expedition of 1801, and in the long campaigns and many battles of the Peninsular War in Spain from 1808-14. The Regiment then played a prominent role in the final defeat of Napoleon at Quatre Bras and Waterloo in 1815.In 1994, after exactly 200 years of service, The Gordon Highlanders was amalgamated with the Queen’s Own Highlanders to form a new Regiment named The Highlanders (Seaforth, Gordons and Camerons).In 2006, The Highlanders was merged with Scotland’s five other infantry regiments to form The Royal Regiment of Scotland.Renowned as a courageous fighting force with an exceptional reputation for good conduct, professionalism and steadfastness, the legacy of The Gordons lives on through The Highlanders, 4th Battalion, and The Royal Regiment of Scotland.The Gordon Highlanders is one of the great names in Scottish history and one of the most celebrated regiments of the British Army.A view of the amazing Scottish scenery taken from around Scotland.Accompanied by the music Scotland the Brave by The Gordon Highlanders.Music Available @itunesI hope you enjoy viewing :)

On one occasion, a certain blacksmith, renowned for his strength and good looks and who had turned down other offers of recruitment, took the kiss and the guinea; but to show it was not the guinea that had tempted him, threw the guinea into the crowd. Recruited mainly in the large Gordon estates in Badenoch, Lochaber and Strathspey and also from the counties of Aberdeen, Banff and Elgin. At first the Regiment was numbered the 100th Regiment of Foot, but the title of the “Gordon Highlanders” was used along with the number, in 1798 they became the 92nd under which number they won their first battle honours and by which they were known until their amalgamation in 1881 with the 75th Regiment.The regiment was formed on 1 July 1881 instigated under the Childers Reforms. The new two-battalion regiment was formed out of the 75th (Stirlingshire) Regiment of Foot - which became the 1st Battalion of the new regiment - and the 92nd (Gordon Highlanders) Regiment of Foot, which became the 2nd.The 75th Highlanders were raised in 1787 by Colonel Robert Abercromby of Tullibody for service in India, where they saw a great deal of action. They went on to serve in South Africa, the Indian Mutiny, Egypt and on the North-West Frontier.The 92nd were raised as the 100th Highlanders by the Duke of Gordon in 1794 being renumbered 92nd in 1798. Their early service included the Low Countries and Egypt, followed by Corunna, the Peninsula, Waterloo, Afghanistan and South Africa.The 92nd (2nd Bn Gordon Highlanders) served throughout the Second Afghan War culminating in the march from Kabul to Kandahar. Bound for return to England after years overseas, they were re-routed to South Africa to fight in the disastrous First Boer War. The regiment suffered severe casualties at the Battle of Majuba Hill.The 75th was in Malta in 1881 when they were converted into the kilted 1st Battalion Gordon Highlanders. They distinguished themselves serving in the Highland Brigade in Egypt from 1882. They fought at the battle of Tel-El-Kebir in 1882 and served in the Nile/Sudan campaigns that followed. They saw action at El Teb on 29 February 1884, and Tamai on 13 March 1884.[citation needed]It was during operations on the North West Frontier in October 1897, during the storming of the Dargai Heights, that one of the regiment's most famous Victoria Crosses was earned. Piper George Findlater, despite being wounded in both legs, continued to play the bagpipes during the assault.The Gordons served throughout the Second Anglo-Boer War of 1899-1902, including for the successful defence of Ladysmith.A view of the Scottish country taken from across Scotland.
