The Highlanders (Seaforth, Gordons and Camerons)
The Highlanders (Seaforth, Gordons and Camerons) are a British Army infantry regiment.
The regiment was formed September 17, 1994 by the amalgamation of the Queens' Own Highlanders (Seaforth and Camerons) and The Gordon Highlanders.
The regiment is currently based in Fallingbostel, Germany and is part of 7 Armoured Brigade, the descendants of World War II's Desert Rats. They are equipped with the Warrior Infantry Vehicle.
In 2004, as part of the restructuring of the infantry, it was announced that The Highlanders would be amalgamated with the other Scottish infantry regiments into the single large Royal Regiment of Scotland.
