Campbell or Black Watch

[figheadair]

The BW/Campbell debate is one of the oldest in the history of tartan study. Notwithstanding the Chief's claim he's was being a little economical with the facts surrounding the founding of the Regiment and it's simply not true to say that it was a Campbell one.

It terms of the tartan, I am unaware of any definitive proof of its use as a Campbell one before c1800. That doesn't invalidate its use now, 200+ years is a pretty good history.
