Description

The regiment in question, the 1st and 2nd Highland Light Infantry had only been formed in 1881 when reforms in the British Army saw the combining of older regiments into new forces. In this case the H.L.I was formed from the 71st and 74th foot regiments. Far from being at its end, the H.L.I would serve with distinction in both the First and Second World Wars.
