The website for this new regiment: http://www.it-serve.co.uk/rros/index.php

That means no more:
Royal Scots
Black Watch (RHR)
Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders (PL)
Royal Highland Fusilliers (PMOGAR)
Kings Own Scottish Borderers
The Highlanders (Seaforth, Gordon, and Cameronians)
Royal Scots Dragoon Guards

Now each regiment will in turn become a battalion of this new "super regiment".

The capbadge:
The motto translated means: "Noone invokes me with impunity" And is the same motto that the Order of the Thistle has used since the 1700's.
I agree with ya brother.. But still being part English and Scottish at the same times can get really hard for me.. :smack:
