Half a mo' -- I believe the Kiwis only have one Scottish unit left, the 1st NZ Armoured Car Regiment:

Unless the Otago & Southland Regiment is still around.
Without researching, i believe the the Otago and Southland (home province for me) regiment is a battalion of reserves now (TFs), with some historical alignment to a Scottish Regiment...

The regiment become a TF battalion of the Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment in 1964 during the reorganisation of the army. This was until the later reorganisation of 1999, which saw the TF battalions split from the RNZIR to become multi-function battalion groups.
In all honesity, I am surprised that either Australia or New Zealand still associate themselves with overseas regiments...

Still time marches on, and as the generations pass, little by little they no longer look to the past for who they are, but to the future of their own dominions, and creating their own traditions, and with that, they strip away connections with heritage and cultures, a little sad really...
