Red hackle history

[Woodsheal]

You need to check out your understandings of Regiments & Battalions

Well, it's my understanding that the 43rd/42d/"Black Watch" was a regiment throughout its history, until recently (2006) when it became the 3rd Battalion of the Royal Scottish Reg't. Where am I going wrong...?
