Description
The time period is 1869, when the 78th Highland Regiment was stationed at the Citadel. This regiment was one of the most famous Scottish units in the British Army and presented an impressive sight in their MacKenzie tartan kilts, feather bonnets and bright red doublets. As with any highland regiment, the heart and soul of the 78th was represented by its pipers. Dressed in contrasting green uniforms, they figured prominently in all aspects of a soldier's life. The 78th Highlanders developed a special, friendly relationship with the local citizens who lamented their departure in 1871.
