2 Sans Peur - Without Fear Ne Obliviscaris - Do not Forget
3 The Russian Cavalry sweeping towards us made the ground quiver under their feet, gathering speed at every stride, on towards that thin red streak tipped with a line of steel. Each man placed cartridges between the buttons of his coat. Aim, steady, fire. Eyewitness at Balaklava 25th October 1854 The museum, housed in the heart of Stirling Castle, traces the history of the 91st Argyllshire Highlanders and the 93rd Sutherland Highlanders up to the time of their amalgamation in 1881 when they became the 1st and 2nd Battalions of The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders and thereafter to the present day. Our exhibition also covers the history and lineage of the broader regimental family, including the Militia, Volunteers and Territorials, Service Battalions, the Combined Cadet Force and Affiliated Regiments. Regimental Tradition
4 The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders REGIMENTAL MUSEUM Both our antecedent regiments were raised to face the military threat from France. 91st Argyllshire Highlanders In 1794 the Duke of Argyll asked his kinsman Duncan Campbell of Lochnell, to raise a regiment from Argyllshire. It was embodied below Stirling Castle on 10th February 1794 and although originally titled 98th the regiment was soon renumbered 91st. Its ranks first saw action in the Napoleonic Wars, fighting the Dutch at the Cape of Good Hope, then in the Peninsula campaign earning the Battle Honours Rolica, Vimiera, Corunna, Pyrenees, Nivelle, Nive, Orthes and Toulouse, and subsequently in the Waterloo campaign. There followed many years of service in South Africa. 93rd Sutherland Highlanders In 1799 General William Wemyss, kinsman of the Countess of Sutherland, raised the 93rd. The regiment first saw action at the Cape of Good Hope. It was to be in the Crimean War and later in the Indian Mutiny that the regiment truly distinguished itself: seven Victoria Crosses were won at the Relief of Lucknow. At the Battle of Balaklava in the Russian Crimea, the 93rd faced the Russian cavalry charge. Instead of forming the customary square, the Highlanders formed a line only two deep, repulsed the attack, and earned the unique nickname The Thin Red Line. The Gold Cross, one of only 163 ever awarded to members of the British Army. Won by Lieutenant Colonel Sir William Douglas of Balgillo KCB who joined the 91st in He was wounded at Orthes and Toulouse.
5 Colonels-in-Chief The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders first Colonel-in-Chief was Her Royal Highness Princess Louise, a daughter of Queen Victoria. In 1871 the 91st provided the Guard of Honour at her wedding to the Duke of Argyll and the following year the 91st was bestowed the title Princess Louise s Argyllshire Highlanders. She became Colonel-in-Chief in She continued to follow activities with great interest until her death in On 21st April 1947 Her Majesty the Queen, then Princess Elizabeth, HRH Princess Louise, the first Colonel-in-Chief of The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. graciously accepted to become the next Colonel-in-Chief on her 21st birthday and has taken a very close interest in her Highlanders ever since. In 2006 Her Majesty The Queen relinquished her title of The Colonel-in-Chief of The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders when she became the first Colonel-in-Chief of the newly formed Royal Regiment of Scotland. Her Majesty retains her links with the Argylls as Royal Colonel of the Balaklava Company 5th Battalion The Royal Regiment of Scotland. Regimental Silver Military silver smithing uniquely represents the pride felt by soldiers both individually and collectively in their regiment, its achievements and its traditions within the regimental messes. Displayed in our exhibition is every type of silverware, from the humble teaspoon, the cigarette case, salvers, candelabras and cups to the large ornate and decorative centrepieces.
