There are a whole lot of unknown areas, and even things that are outright ignored. Like the multiple images from the Mutiny thru 45-46 that show members of the regiment wearing a red/yellow based tartan. To even contemplate that "Black Watch" was not exactly as stated in the regimental history, it can get you in hot water.
What ever you do, dont bring up the fact that the Regimental pipers were wearing a Red hackle as early as 1758!!!

Thanks Luke!
Yes, I've heard it said that history is an argument about the past.
