Hello everyone.
Recently my Grandfather sadly passed away and I've always been curious about his time in The Black Watch, namely, his Regiments time in Cyprus.
I'm curious about the history of the Black Watch and what there goals where in regard to Cyprus, Regiment life while there and general life for the soldiers.
This is my first time posting here so I'm sorry if I've missed a rule or left anything out.
Thank you in advance
