SCOTS GUARDS TO PARADE IN GLASGOW

Around 250 soldiers will take part in a homecoming parade in Glasgow after a six month tour of duty in Afghanistan.

The 1st Battalion Scots Guards will march from Holland Street at 11am to George Square taking in West Regent Street, Pitt Street and West George Street.

The Lord Provost will take the Salute on the dais, with the Regimental Lieutenant Colonel, Brigadier Harry Nickerson in George Square.

Commanding Officer Lieutenant Colonel Rob Howieson said, "It is a great honour to march through the streets of Glasgow. The Guardsmen are very proud of their work and they are humbled to be able to parade in front of their friends, families and the local community.

"The battalion has had a challenging six months in Afghanistan and the parade will recognise its achievement."

The troops, currently stationed in Catterick, North Yorkshire, were deployed to Afghanistan as part of Operation Herrick 17 between October 2012 and April this year.

The battalion spent the duration of their tour in Helmand Province, where they were deployed to the Upper Gereshk Valley.
