2.

A once-illustrious British Army regiment from Perthshire. After serving valiantly in the first and second World Wars, they went on to kill civilians and "terrorists" indiscriminately in Ireland's northern six counties, which were (and still are) under British occupation.

There's another regiment the devil calls his own: they're known as the Black Watch, commissioned by the throne.
