The Royal Regiment of Scotland

The Royal Regiment of Scotland
(SCOTS) is the senior and only
Scottish line infantry regiment of
the British Army Infantry.

It consists of five regular and
two territorial battalions, each
formerly an individual regiment
(with the exception of the first
battalion, which is an
amalgamation of two
regiments).

However, each battalion
maintains its former regimental
Pipes and Drums to carry on the
traditions of their antecedent
regiments
.

All battalions in the Royal
Regiment of Scotland, to
preserve regional ties and
former regimental indentites,
took the name of their former
individual regiments.

House of Labhran scottish regimental kilts and insignia
through the amalgamation of
the Royal Irish Rangers and the
(UDR). Most of the membership
of the new Regiment came from
the UDR.

This produced a regiment with
eleven battalions:

Regular Army - General Service
1st Battalion, Royal Irish
Regiment
2nd Battalion, Royal Irish
Regiment
Territorial Army
4th Battalion, Royal Irish
Rangers
5th Battalion, Royal Irish
Rangers

Regular Army - Northern Ireland

Service")

4th (County Fermanagh and
County Tyrone) Battalion, Royal
Irish Regiment
5th (County Londonderry)

6th (County Armagh) Battalion,
Royal Irish Regiment
7th (City of Belfast) Battalion,
Royal Irish Regiment
8th (County Tyrone) Battalion,
Royal Irish Regiment
9th (County Antrim) Battalion,
Royal Irish Regiment

Note: Northern Ireland Resident
Battalion is the official Army
terminology for what was
previously known as the "Home
Service" (a term still mistakenly
used).

The Northern Ireland Resident
Battalions filled the role formerly
occupied by the UDR;
conducting counter-terrorism
operations in Northern Ireland
under Operation BANNER. The
1st and 2nd Battalions, by
contrast, served worldwide as
general service battalions.

Because of its size, the
regiment was removed from the
King's Division and existed
outside the divisions of infantry.
In 1993, one of the regular
battalions (2 R IRISH based in
Lemgo) was disbanded. In
2001, the number of Northern
Ireland Resident Battalions was
reduced to three:

2nd Battalion - amalgamation of
7th and 9th Battalions
3rd Battalion - amalgamation of
3rd and 6th Battalions[5]
4th Battalion - amalgamation of
4th and 5th Battalions
