The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards - Spirit of the Glen

The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards (Carabiniers and Greys) (SCOTS DG) is a cavalry regiment of the British Army, and the

senior Scottish regiment. It was formed on 2 July 1971 at Holyrood, Edinburgh, by the amalgamation of the 3rd

Carabiniers (Prince of Wales's Dragoon Guards) (themselves the product of the amalgamation in 1922 of 3rd Dragoon Guards

(Prince of Wales's) and 6th Dragoon Guards (Carabiniers)), and The Royal Scots Greys (2nd Dragoons).


The regiment has won numerous battle honours and two Victoria Crosses, and, through the Royal Scots Greys, is the

oldest surviving Cavalry Regiment of the Line in the British Army. The pipes and drums have also distinguished

themselves, most recently winning the award for Album of the Year at the 2009 Classical Brits.


The regiment is currently based in Fallingbostel, British Forces Germany, as part of the 7th Armoured Brigade ('The

Desert Rats'). In 1998, it became the first regiment in the British Army to operate the Challenger 2 main battle tank.



The regiment has its own Pipes and Drums, whom were first formed in 1946 and tour widely, performing in competitions,

concerts and parades. Their most famous piece is Amazing Grace, which reached number one in the charts in the United

Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Canada and South Africa in 1972.


The band released a new CD in late November 2007 through Universal Music, featuring a number of classic pipe tunes

along with some modern arrangements. The album Spirit Of The Glen, was produced by Jon Cohen and released by Universal

on November 26 2007.


Spirit Of The Glen was officially launched at Edinburgh Castle and won Album of the Year at the 2009 Classical Brits.
