Highland Regiment regulations?

[Thunderbolt]

I'm trying to find uniform regulations for Highland Regiments. Specifically order of dress and standards for kilts and accessories. We called it the AR 670-1, or "Wear and Appearance of Army Uniforms and Insignia", in the US Army. But I'm looking for the Highland Regiment equivelant.

Also, I'm trying to find what we called "Drill and Ceremony", or D&C, book. I'm sure the regiments have different names for these, but if you know what they are called, I'd be interested to know.

I'm former Army myself. Army armor, to be exact, but I did several years ROTC and armed drill. I'm just curious as how the Regiments did it.

Any ideas? Place to look? I have no problem purchasing them.

Very informative. Thanks.

At the very bottom of the Regimental Tailors page the waistcoat is called a vest. Does anyone know why?

That's what I was looking for! Thank you much.

ETA: I notice that they refer to the glengarry as a "lowland glengarry". Which begs the question; is there a 'highland glengarry'...?
ETA2:I also noticed that the kilts are all "Govt 1A Tartan (Tailors/ Officers) Patt No TBC. Boxed Pleats."...interesting.

Todd,

I see that under the Royal Regiment of Scotland it lists sergeants as Senior NCO’s, so I guess that would make a lowly Staff Sergeant like me a Senior NCO in their eyes but not in my fair army.

Looks like they wear the kilt longer than in the past.

I believe the "lowland" Pattern Glen refers to the red, black, and white Dicing...as opposed to the Red and white as worn by the A&SH, and the plain black ones worn by the Black Watch Royal Highland Regiment (of course now all part of the Royal Regiment of Scotland).

That would be my assumption as well, as a number of the Lowland regiments - the KOSBs, the Royal Scots, the HLI and the old RSF wore diced glengarries. Only the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles) wore plain rifle green glengarries.

Aye, not much a knee to see!

But then I think the camera angle has a lot to do with that.
