      Least 5 times a week probably, stems from them being the 42nd hight regiment of foot (I believe anyway), were founded from three of the Campbells (hence likely I think they wear their tartan), meaning crooked mouth in English quite essentially. Were formally probably the most powerful Clan in Scotland. Funny how when they supported King Robert I (Clan Bruce) for the throne were actually a relatively minor clan, then in the next century their chief was made 1st Lord of Argyll (namely Duncan Campbell), is now is his grace the Duke of Argyll (Torquhill Campbell).

    In another video, this is like 18 minutes long. That Bass drummer hit that about 12k times. He sets the cadence. Want to see it done well, Watch Canadian troops coming in,"The Devils Brigade". They get it right with honor and respect. Enjoyed my time leading a battalion of Canadians with my Regiment. Their attention to duty embarrassed me a bit. Always on time, never complained in front of NCO's and Officers or other nationalities. Not like a group I was attached to during the Iran Contra affair, when a Nicaraguan officer shot one of his own men in the leg.

      And what exactly does the chippy separatist above mean by "get back to the real "black watch"" .. given the Black Watch were formed after Scotland became part of the union and have always been part of the British Army.
      Given however the way the SNP have dumbed down and rewritten the teaching of history in Scotland and the separatists themselves seem to have no inclination to read anything other than bullshit chippy anglophobic posts on social media, I doubt many of them could work that out.
