    He is following "the rule" on that one, as he is wearing a dirk, which would necessitate the wearing of a dirk belt.

    Ah, of course, that makes sense. Thanks for clearing that one up.

    A photo of my Great Uncle Danny Brown in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders in WW1. The men in the family were coal miners and moved back and forth between Pennsylvania and Scotland with relative ease. My Grandmother, Helen Brown Spence was a maid for a private family in Glasgow during the war.
    After the war he emigrated to the USA and settled in Detroit , Michigan.
    Si Deus, quis contra? Spence and Brown on my mother's side, Johnston from my father, proud member of Clan MacDuff!

    HM The Queen, accompanied by the kilted Captain Alwyne Farquharson of Invercauld in, at a guess, the 1960's.

    First, King Edward in tweed and flat cap



    Next a piper, photo taken in Edinburgh



    Next are some strange publicity photos from the 1980s featuring regimental pipers, the Gordon Highlanders and The Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders

    Many thanks, Jock, for posting that cover of The Field. It was most appropriate for them to use that picture of Her Majesty.
    Since the picture is in black and white, I was wondering whether anyone could confirm that the tartan is Balmoral?
    Regards,
    Mike
