@@adelef8280 In reply to Al MacMathain, The other ranks have slashed peaks on their forage caps, they look better than the standard issue caps which looked like bus conductors caps. I had my peak altered when I joined the Battalion in 1963.
Scots have traditional links to the Welsh Guards, so you do get WG officers on secondment to the SG. There's likewise a traditional link with the Coldstreamers and Irish Guards.

Is this one of the last "free" areas of the western Europe? Draged to the far north, where specific people are not willing to move due to weather conditions? Scattland the brave - be (and stay) free!
SCOTS GUARDS IS AN ENGLISH REGIMENT,,The Scots Guards (SG), is one of the Foot Guards regiments of the British Army. Their origins lie in the personal bodyguard of King Charles I of England
@@robinlinstrom6768 King Charles 1 was the second son of James VI of Scotland and born at Dunfermline Castle, he was a SCOT not English and he became King of England and Scotland and the Scots Guards were part of his bodyguard. It is true that a lot of Scots Guardsmen are English and a lot of Englishmen have served in Scottish Regiments especially if they have Scottish ancestry. I served in the Coldstream Guards (the oldest Regiment in the British Army) and we had some Scots lads in our regiment.

@@robinlinstrom6768 Hi Robin, I was giving a history lesson to the guy who was implying the SG were an English regiment. When I was at Pirbright in 1963 there was an Irish Guards Drill Sgt who put the fear of god up us but years later I met him when we were both civvy’s and we got on well, he was a great guy and still ramrod straight and smart as a button stick. Rivalry between the regiments is a good thing, keeps them on their toes.👍

Mcphersons lament if I'm not mistaken
Why do the guardmen’s caps have such variety of peak sizes and angle of slope?
Buggers with style.
