Reservists from 6 SCOTS recently spent their time in the field developing core soldiering skills.

From learning how to administer their weapon and maintain their kit, to conducting patrols and refining their tactical movements, the weekend culminated in a 0500 Sunday morning raid.

Now that's how to spend a weekend 🙌

Today we celebrate the official birthday of our Colonel-in-Chief, His Majesty The King.

At home and overseas, all of us across The Royal Regiment of Scotland send our best wishes to His Majesty.

Reservists from 7 SCOTS recently put their trench skills to the test.

From digging defensive positions to reacting to drone threats and blank-fire scenarios, these are critical skills every modern soldier relies on.

Swipe to see what they got up to, and watch out for those skills in action later this week 👉🏻

BKA Coy (5 SCOTS) battled through dense woodland and tough terrain to smash their Training Level Bravo.

The Jocks worked through tactical drills, blank-firing exercises and casualty scenarios, putting their training into practice in realistic conditions.

Exercises like this are essential to maintaining operational readiness and preparing for future deployments.

In its 20th anniversary year, The Royal Regiment of Scotland hosted a 21-Gun Salute at Edinburgh Castle, home of our Regimental Headquarters.

The salute marked the arrival of the Lord High Commissioner at the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland.

The reviewing officer, and special guest of the regiment, was GB&NI professional athlete who took the salute.

Our guests had the opportunity to meet soldiers from 5 SCOTS and receive a tour of the Museum of The Royal Regiment of Scotland, gaining insight into the Regiment’s role in today’s society and its proud history.

Did you know?
The 21-Gun Salute originated as a naval tradition in the 16th century, signalling peaceful intentions by firing to empty their cannons, a custom that has evolved into a mark of respect for royal and state occasions.

In The Royal Regiment of Scotland, we move forward as one.
