Great to have @Comd51st to Leuchars today to present @UN medals to @SCOTS_DG troops after our tour in @UN_CYPRUS. We also presented ‘mini medals’ to the kids marking the family nature of the Regiment #Thisisbelonging #OurPeople #familyregiment

The sound of #Edinburgh Castle’s One O’Clock Gun heralded a change of Command for 51st Infantry Brigade and HQ Scotland today. Brigadier Gary Deakin handed over command to Brigadier Robin Lindsay, as he leaves on promotion to Major General, to the #NATO HQ in #Naples.

Managed to catch the tail end of #ChangingGuard today. Just can't get used to seeing kilts down the Mall, but a wonderful sight nonetheless @5SCOTS. Managed a snap of @CplCruachan_IV too.
