Garry;
'Highland Laddie' is the official Quick March (or Regimental March) of the RHC (with 'The Red Hackle' being the official Slow March).
'Black Bear' is normally the traditional March Back to the Barracks tune of Highland Regiments (and others).
When did the Black Watch change from 'Highland Laddie' or has Shadow brought you one to many cold ones........
Cheers
