I served in the RHF from 1975 to 1987 and travelled all over the world if I had any chance of returning i would be there in seconds I enjoyed every minute of my 12 years service I am a passionate and loyal x soldier who was dedicated to my job and my comraids of which some were lost in conflict mainly northern ireland where I served 3 years your video has taught me things about the RSF and the HLI which I was not aware very interesting and informational video great good to watch Cheers Ian

My grandfather served in the Royal Scots Fusiliers from 1923-32, including with the 2nd battalion in India. He rejoined the battalion in 1939.

My grandfather served in the 2nd battalion RSF 1921-1928 and my brother served 23 years in the RHF and 4 Scots. My father served in the ACC and 28 years in 1/52 Lowland Volunteers. My family has a great history associated with this regiment.

I was a former Gordon Highlander and left the Regiment and took my discharge in 1969. I miss the lads of my old Regiment and the camaraderie we had. Many a lad has now passed awa but I still think of them and the closeness of our friendships. March no more ma Soldier Laddies............!

Valiant regiment . Noble service . Never doubt we will need there like again .

DoA sent me here. Love to see a celebration of our people. Virtutis Gloria Merces

That could definitely be possibility, I'm gonna do famous battles fought on Scottish soil later on so the Jacobite rising will be covered when talking about Culloden. And yeah perhaps I could do Famous Scots at do a video on those too!

Great (and much under appreciated) videos!

you're gonna explode man the videos are excellent. doing a great thing with these videos!

This channel is educational and amazing.

My great grandfather died 27th March 1918 aged 34, he's remembered with honour at Ramleh war cemetery.

Very interesting video mate, just subbed on the recommendation of DukeofDurham. Bail ó Dhia ar an obair!

Thank you for the video. My grandfather Tom joined the Royal Scots Fusiliers in 1940.

My uncle was in 2nd Battalion 1939 - 1944 - died in Belgium in 1944. I wonder if they knew each other.

My grandfather lied about his age to join RSF at the outbreak of WW1. He was recalled for WW2 and ended up as Regimental Sgt Major.

Love these

"Infamous Gordon Highlanders"? Infamy, Infamy they're all got it in for me.

A lot of people think of the Highland regiments but never the much older Lowland regiments.

15:10 - it's "Glesga" 👍🏻

Interesting. My Dad was a RSF and served in Malaya

Can you produce a similar video for the Highland Light Infantry (HLI)?

Yeah so I have that in the books, due to uni and other commitments I haven't been able to make as many as I used to. But I'll eventually do a video on them!

@@WolfofAlba brilliant - thank you. I served 24 years in the Royal Highland Fusiliers, it is great to see these videos on the antecedent Battalions

RIp my beautiful friend 💖💖💖💖💖👊xxD..

The Royal Scots Fusiliers + HLI = The Royal Highland Fusiliers Which has the most battle honours in British Army now 2Scots The Royal Regiment Of Scotland .

My grandad was in the Royal Scots Fusiliers during ww2 and Palestine from 1945-1948 even though he was English and born in north London

I think you'll find. The Royal Scots are the oldest regiment in Scotland. 1633. First of foot

Brittish army at its best

With all due respect to the Royal Scots Fusiliers, the oldest regiment in the British Army is the Honourable Artillery Company founded in 1537 under a Royal charter granted by King Henry VIII.
