What a great list! These highlanders are all reserve units now - essentially training soldiers who then frequently go to serve alongside regulars in Afghanistan or on UN missions. They bring unique skills and abilities - especially some of their officers and NCOs. Several have been killed or wounded. Though they did it in WW2, it is extremely unlikely any Canadian reserve unit would ever go into the field as a formed body, as US national guard units have done.
