EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures the essence of Scottish military history with the depiction of a Lieutenant from the Kings Own Scottish Borderers in full dress uniform. The officer proudly wears the distinctive tartan of the Scottish Borderers, adorned with the regimental badge on his helmet and the intricately designed tunic and trousers. His uniform is complete with a sword at his side, adding to the traditional and regal appearance. The Lieutenant's medals tell a story of valor and bravery, with the prominent display of the Distinguished Service Order (DSO) and the Queen's South Africa Medal (1899-02), which bears five bars representing various campaigns during the Second Boer War. The DSO is a prestigious decoration awarded for exceptional gallantry in the face of the enemy, making it a coveted honor for any soldier. The painting, skillfully created by Malcolm Greensmith, masterfully captures the attention with its rich colors, meticulous attention to detail, and the sense of history it evokes. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the pride and dedication of a Scottish soldier during a significant period in British military history. The Kings Own Scottish Borderers, also known as the "Black Watch," have a long and storied history, dating back to 1689. The regiment has seen action in numerous conflicts, including the American Revolution, the Napoleonic Wars, and both World Wars. This image serves as a testament to the Scottish soldiers' unwavering commitment to their duty and their rich heritage.
