The Palace of Holyroodhouse, commonly referred to as Holyrood Palace, is the official residence of the Monarch of the United Kingdom in Scotland. Located at the bottom of the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, at the opposite end to Edinburgh Castle, Holyrood Palace has served as the principal residence of the Kings and Queens of Scots since the 16th century, and is a setting for state occasions and official entertaining.

I've not come across these racist comments but I bet you wouldn't give a tinker's cuss what colour skin the man had if he was shedding his blood to protect you and yours. Racist comments say more about your own shortcomings than it does about anyone whose skin isn't of the purest white.

I was in Holyroodhouse on the same parade 4 years ago,I did cry like a baby.Everybody should see it at least once in a lifetime.I cant explain the emotions and the feelings during the march of this wonderful guys,they deserve to be called The heroes.The locals were telling us this soldiers were fighting in Afganistan,Irak etc...so this is an honor for them to be in this special group. I love Scotland and the Scots and their Whisky with no ice!

Thanks for the update. Once you get to know what you're looking for you will be able to identify the various regiments performing public duties. For example, RSDG are cavalry and these troops are infantry. How do we know this? Cavalry regiments don't carry a colour/standard.; they carry a guidon. Here we have a colour party so infantry is all it can be, How do we know this is 1SCOTS? They're wearing Government tartan , note the Pipe Major's pipe bannner and they play Blue Bonnets O'er the border
