Kilted British Unit in Iraq
Maybe you guys would know what British units (with kilts) were in Iraq in 2004?
My chaplain wore the Black Watch but his connection to that tartan was personal.
Me personally, I have served along side the SAS and the Royal Irish Fusaliers.
But were there Highland troops in Iraq in 2004? If so what tartans are (or were) associated with those units?
The SAS guys were a hoot! I was chatting with a SAS trooper guarding thousands of blank ballots, I said: "Look, I have an ink pen. you have ballots, wee could be Kings." He replied with a quote from Kipling. Loved those guys.
