Historical Re-enactment (Living History) Organizations, including the Texas Military
Historical Society (TMHS), the Gulf Coast Living History Association as well as the
Louisiana Military Historical Association (LMHA). The unit represents a defense platoon

those who wish to represent "behind the lines" soldiers. Those who represent
Brigade/Corps level personnel (Engineers, Signals, etc.) are welcome to attach. The Lorne
Scots dress, drill and deportment requirements are extremely specific and are enforced at
all events. Dress is composed solely of World War Two British/Indian khaki drill (or
Aertex) uniforms, standard P-37 webbing, and the No. 4 Mk. 1 Lee Enfield .303 rifle. For
"walking out dress", all personnel are given one year to purchase (or have
manufactured) a Campbell of Atholl tartan kilt. Pipers are accepted into the unit provided
they are post-tutelage and professional in their playing and appearance; no bearded
"Pipe-Majors" under any circumstances will be allowed. The Lorne Scots will be
taking part in various living history activities in Southeast Texas, from Beaumont to
Houston. Any inquiries may be made to the Unit Commander. Michael
