	The Scottish Military Tradition in Canada
		The Scottish military tradition is generally associated with the Highlands, home of the clans, where a tribal feudalism akin to our own Canadian aboriginal peoples flourished with its own hierarchy of chieftains.
		Only one regiment was formed, and this by bringing together the scattered independent companies of the Watch to form the 43rd Regiment (it was later renumbered the 42nd in 1749).
		The first blooding of Canadian Scottish units occurred on the beaches of Dieppe, August 1942 when The Essex Scottish, the Cameron Highlanders of Canada, and elements of the Black Watch went ashore into a hail of fire with their comrades of Second Division.

	DND/CF : Backgrounder : Canadian Participation on D-Day and In The Battle of Normandy
		It is very easy to allocate the named Army regiments of infantry and armour to current geographical areas, but with the way the Army artillery, engineers, and other combat service support units were organized during the Second World War, it is impossible to provide definite links to today's units.
		That means that whatever Army or militia units happen to be in a provincial capital could be participants because their 'corps' or branch as a whole was involved.
