Army Pipers' Uniform RRS

[OC Richard]

Good eye there, yes it's great to see that man standing with his regiment despite his injuries, a true Hero.

Staying with 2SCOTS, here is the Pipes, Drums, & Bugles in No1A Ceremonial where you can see that the drummers are in Highland Dress like the pipers (except that the drummers, like other Highland drummers, wear the Feather Bonnet). However the Drum Major is wearing the antecedent regiment's colourful uniform complete with bearskin headdress



Here in No13A Barrack Dress with jumpers, RRS kilts, Lovat hose, plain brown leather sporrans. The Red Erskine bag-covers make their battalion clear.



Here are two of the pipers in the civilian kit the Pipes, Drums, & Bugles wear when competing in civilian pipe band contests.
The shirts, waistcoats, sporrans, hose, and Ghillies are civilian while their Glengarries, ties, kilts, and pipe dressings are regimental.



Now to 3SCOTS, the Black Watch. Here are their pipers in No1A Ceremonial



Here's the Pipes and Drums in No14A Shirt Sleeve Order Ceremonial. Note the differences between No14A and No14B seen with 1SCOTS in a post above.



And the Pipes and Drums of 3SCOTS in their civilian kit, worn when competing at civilian contests. Due to switching to the RRS kilts, their kilts and bag-covers now match!
