Please does anyone know what the uniform was that a private in this regiment would have worn going into battle in 1916?

Where can I access a photograph please?

The uniform would be the same as every other Kilted Highland Regiment,a lot of pictures of Glasgow Highlanders are often mistaken for Black Watch lads,"Come On The Highlanders" is the book you should get if the 9th Battalion is your interest. :thumbsup:

Thank you Gary, very helpful.

I had 'The Hell the called High Wood' this Christmas, the action in which he died, but now I need to locate the book you suggested.

Season's Greetings. Jean
