Comd Offr SCOTS DG

The Royal Scots Greys are the oldest of our antecedent Regiments. They once journeyed to Palestine on a recruitment campaign where they displayed their famed horsemanship.

The Commanding Officer wishes to warmly congratulate Sgt Innes, AGC (SPS) on the award of a Personnel Administration Branch Commendation. “Disproportionately significant and positive impact to the AGC Detachment and to the operational effectiveness of the SCOTS DG”.

This morning the Pipes & Drums undertook a, best effort, 10 mile charity run carrying 15kg. Each participant donated £10 worth of food to a local food bank. The fastest time was LCpl Hannan in 1 hour 42 minutes. #scotscavintartan #scotsdgpipesanddrums #scotscav #auniquecareer
