James Aikman Cochrane, DSO, MC (12 May 1919 - 5 December 2015) was a Scottish soldier who was awarded the Military Cross and the Distinguished Service Order during the Second World War. He later had a career in book publishing and printing and wrote a well-received account of his war-time experiences. To distinguish him from his father, Cochrane was always known as Peter, though his own war records show him as James Aikman Cochrane. Cochrane was commissioned into the Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders (QOCH) in February 1940. In January 1944, by now a battalion commander, he landed at Taranto in Italy and fought in the Fourth and final Battle of Monte Cassino, that drove the Germans out of that country. The reminiscences of his Army service were published by Chatto as Charlie company: In service with 'C' company, 2nd Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders, 1940-44 in 1977. The book was positively reviewed by Lawrence Cotterell in The Times for the way it described the human dimension of warfare. Jeffrey Burn is a distinguished artist that has worked on several Osprey Military publications over the years, including MAA 230 The US Army 1890-1920. The Royal Regiment of Scotland is the senior and only Scottish line infantry regiment of the British Army Infantry. It consists of four regular and two reserve battalions, plus an incremental company, each formerly an individual regiment (with the exception of the first battalion, which is an amalgamation of two regiments). However, each battalion maintains its former regimental pipes and drums to carry on the traditions of their antecedent regiments. The current regiment's various Dress Uniforms incorporate a number of "golden threads" from the antecedent regiments. Some of the most prominent include: All battalions wear the Lowland pattern Glengarry, this pattern was in fact also common to the Seaforth Highlanders and Gordon Highlanders, as well as the Lowland Royal Highland Fusiliers, Royal Scots and King's Own Scottish Borderers regiments. In No. 1 and No. 2 pattern dress, all battalions wear Blackcock tail feathers attached to the Glengarry in a tradition taken from the Royal Scots and King's Own Scottish Borderers. The regimental motto of the Highlanders, Cuidich 'n Righ (Aid the King), has been incorporated into the Royal Scots Thistle pattern collar dogs worn on the No.1 and No. 2 pattern doublet or Service Dress jacket. The tartan adopted by the new regiment is Government 1A (sometimes known as Sutherland), a version of the Government (Black Watch) tartan worn by the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. The kilt is sewn in a box pleat style, as worn by the 2nd Battalion Black Watch, Seaforth Highlanders, Queen's Own Highlanders (Seaforth and Camerons) and the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. The Sporran is in the horsehair style worn by the Seaforth Highlanders and Gordon Highlanders, with a brass Black Watch cantle. The Black and Red diced Hose and scarlet Garter flashes are in a style worn by the Black Watch. The Spats with black buttons, worn over the Brogues, are in a style worn by the Gordon Highlanders, with a point to the rear, as worn by the Black Watch. The Band of the Royal Regiment of Scotland wears the Feather bonnet with a red over white hackle and scarlet Doublet in Full Dress Uniform. Jeffrey Burn (illustrator).…
