ok,
Checked out the site. I remember reading that at one time. I am not denying what unit they are supposed to be portraying (on a very thin line), just trying to figure out who the "Kilted soldiers" are supposed to be. Now this kind of confuses me:
The Highland Company, wearing Cameron of Erracht tartan, found that one company of the 16th Battalion (Canadian Scottish) did in fact come from the Cameron Highlanders of Winnipeg. Some of the cadre were able to bring old black glengarries from Calgary Highlanders stores onto the set, and several pipers brought instruments out. Modern Legato drums were converted to resemble rope tension drums, but unfortunately the anticipated "pipe band" scene never materialized.
Is he saying that they used extras from the Canadian Scottish, or were they supposed to be portraying the Canadian Scottish? He calls them the "Highland Company", so I will need to dig a little tomorow and see if there was a Highland Company that would have been part of the 10th Bn CEF.
Thanks for the link.
Cheers,
Chad
