EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures King George V (1865-1936) in his role as Colonel-in-Chief of the Black Watch, a historic regiment of the British Army. Dressed in the traditional uniform of the Black Watch, King George V proudly dons the vibrant tartan, adorned with blue, green, red, and gold hues. The intricate design of the tartan is accentuated by the golden braid and silver buttons. The King's uniform is further embellished with a sash, epaulettes, and a variety of military medals, each representing significant achievements and contributions to the British military. The regal air of the monarch is palpable as he gazes off into the distance, exuding a sense of authority and pride. The Black Watch, also known as the Royal Highland Regiment of Scotland, was an infantry regiment with a rich history dating back to 1739. The regiment saw action in numerous conflicts, including the Napoleonic Wars and both World Wars. King George V's connection to the Black Watch began in 1912, and his leadership and support were instrumental in the regiment's success during World War I. This photograph, taken in the 1920s, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the historical significance of the monarchy's role in the military and the enduring legacy of the Black Watch. The image is a testament to the tradition, honor, and courage that have defined the British military for centuries.
