2006 Mar 28th – 1st Bn The Royal Highland Fusiliers become The 2nd Battalion The Royal Regiment of Scotland, due to the restructuring of the Scottish Division.

As part of the British Army’s restructuring for future operations, the Royal Regiment of Scotland was formed on 28th March 2006 by merging our six Regiments into one. The Royal Scots and Kings Own Scottish Borderers amalgamated on August 2006 to form the 1st Battalion and the remaining four Regiments provided the 2nd to 5th Battalions of our Regiment, retaining the antecedent names in the Battalions full titles. The 6th and 7th Battalions were formed from the two Scottish Division Territorial Army battalions based in Scotland.

Proud of our heritage and structured for the 21st Century, the Regiment continues to serve Queen and Country.
