Composed of battalions of Highland infantry regiments - Black Watch, Seaforth Highlanders, Gordon Highlanders, Cameron Highlanders and Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders - the Division deployed to France with the British Expeditionary Force in 1939, later serving in Egypt, North Africa, France and on the Rhine." "At all times the Division was known for its esprit de corps which touched not only its Highland soldiers but the many non-Scots who serviced in its ranks; its machine-gun battalion was from The Middlesex Regiment while its reconnaissance regiment, after 1942, was 2nd Derby Yeomanry. All who served in its ranks wore the HD flash with pride, a pride that was justified by the Division's outstanding record during the war. This book will tell the story of the Division through official records, personal accounts and memories and previously published material."--BOOK JACKET
