Hello eveyone
After reading a bit about the battle of assaye in 1803 india one of Sir Arthur Wellsleys first commanded and the one he was most proud of, the regiment that distinguished itself the most that day was the 78th regiment of foot.
I'm just wondering who did the 78th get changed into over the years and which of the Scottish battalions today has the closest link to them.
