To the mothers, wives, partners and families of Old Faithful — thank you.
Whilst our soldiers spend time away in the field, it is your strength, patience and support at home that allows us to do what we do. Your sacrifices often go unseen, but they are never unappreciated.
Today we recognise and thank all the mothers within the Old Faithful family. Happy Mother’s Day 💚
Duty First.

It makes a parade!
Old Faithful’s Pipes and Drums form an important part of the Battalion’s identity. They wear Royal Stewart Tartan, as does our allied British Unit, the Scots Guards.
The Adjutant, as the platoon commander of Pipes and Drums, also wears the tartan on parade. As well as a c**k feather to identify him as the senior clan member on parade.
