Tartans of Canada's Highland Regiments

[BoldHighlander]

What great photos! The picture you have under Essex and Kent Scottish Regiment appears to show either the Argylls or Calgary Highlrs - definitely NOT the EK Scots. I tried to search for some pictures on the web but to no avail. When I get home from work tonight, I'll post some photos of the EK Scots that I have saved from the web.

Thanks for the correction Mark. I went by the original source for the photo in question (I can't seem to locate the source by the way).

I'll correct it later, including some photos I found of the EK Scots (different from the ones you included).

Thanks again for bringing it to my attention!

Okay, I corrected the original posting of the Essex & Kent Scottish earlier in this thread.

Below are some more photos from 2009:

Some nice photos of the "Eeks & Squeeks" there, Terry!

For those who may be unaware, HRH Prince Michael of Kent is a nephew of the Martyred Tsar Nicholas II.

A most excellent thread, gentlemen. This is why Xmarks is a daily experience in my life. Cheers!

And the entire web site is worth perusing -- if only every Scottish diaspora community could do what Windsor, Ontario has done here!

And if you look at older photos of him when his hair was darker one can really see the resemblence to the late Tsar!
