Black Watch Territorial Army (EDM1771)

Black Watch Territorial Army

EDM number 1771 in 2008-09, proposed by Pete Wishart on 29/06/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Armed forces.

That this House expresses concern at the proposed removal of the Red Hackle from the caps of Black Watch Territorial Army soldiers; recognises that the Red Hackle is the most recognisable symbol of the Black Watch; notes the proud and honourable history of the regiment; understands that the identity of the historic regiment must be protected; and hopes that the retention of the regiment's distinct identity, promised on the creation of the Royal Regiment of Scotland, will be upheld.

This motion has been signed by a total of 40 MPs.
