The Scottish Gunners are to march through Inverness next month as they exercise their freedom of the city.
The troops of the 19th Regiment Royal Artillery will be on parade in the Highland capital on Thursday, March 26.
From 3pm, they will march down the High Street and past the Town House, cross Ness Bridge and finish the parade at St Andrew’s Cathedral.
The 19th Regiment Royal Artillery – the Scottish Gunners – was granted the Freedom of the city in 1999.
It is the highest honour a local authority can grant and is bestowed on organisations of distinction from the region. It is symbolic of the esteem in which the city holds the recipient.
The 19th Regiment traces its history to 17 Brigade Royal Field Artillery which was formed in 1900, but the individual batterys date back to the 18th century.
The 17 Brigade saw action during World War I and in May 1940, had the honour of being the first Royal Artillery unit to fire in World War II while stationed at the Maginot Line.
It subsequently served during the North African and Italian campaigns. 17 Brigade was re-designated 19th Regiment in 1947.
The Scottish Gunners have been granted the Freedom of the cities of Inverness and Colchester and wear the Robertson tartan.
The Regiment’s Pipes and Drums is drawn from active duty soldiers and is a living connection to its Scottish heritage.
