The Royal Lancers wearing their famous skull and crossbones cap and badge - an Armoured Cavalry Regiment from the British Army, celebrating Her Majesty Queen Camilla’s 78th birthday today at Edinburgh Castle, Scotland.

Her Majesty was appointed Colonel-in-Chief of The Royal Lancers in 2022, following the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth Il, who had served in the role and as a devoted Royal patron for over 60 years. The Royal Lancers are one of the few regiments in the British Army with an active, named Royal affiliation.

Though ceremonial, the position of Colonel-in-Chief carries deep meaning. Queen Camilla provides enduring and symbolic leadership, reinforcing the Regiment's identity, heritage and connection to the nation.

As Colonel-in-Chief, Queen Camilla maintains a close relationship with the Regiment, attends major events, and upholds the traditions passed down by Queen Elizabeth II.

It was an historic day in the Ancient and Royal Burgh of Linlithgow. First, Provost Derek Green, in his first year was privileged to see in the 50th Anniversary of the Deacons Court. Also The Royal Regiment of Scotland lead the 11am Marches procession through Linlithgow. They were once again exercising their right to march through the town to help mark the 50th anniversary. The Freedom of Linlithgow and West Lothian was granted to the Royal Regiment of Scotland back in 2011.

The Riding of the Marches of the Ancient and Royal Burgh of Linlithgow is a tradition dating back to the 16th century. The Linlithgow Marches & Deacons Court, known as the Deacons Court, continue to organise the Riding on the first Tuesday after the second Thursday in June every year.
