| Background Information | The Royal British Legion Scotland is a charity (no. SC003323) seeking both to perpetuate the memory of those Scottish service-men and women who have died fighting for their country, and to assist and represent surviving ex-members of the armed forces. It also organises annual remembrance parades, and acts as an umbrella body for local British Legion societies. Established by Field Marshal Earl Haig following the First World War, the Legion has a close working relationship with both the Earl Haig Fund Scotland and the Officers' Association Scotland, sharing offices with these organisations.
