Are you seeking information regarding individuals who identify themselves as being Scottish regardless of where they live now, or people who currently have a Scottish address regardless of their background or country of origin? Please note that for the MOD Joint Personnel Administration, some of the nationality options an individual can record themselves as include ‘British’, ‘Scottish’ or ‘British Scottish’. I was mainly looking for those having joined the Army from a Scottish address as I’m looking at how many people located in Scotland join the Army. Further clarification is required concerning the second part of your request - please clarify if you want Corps and Infantry Regiment (In essence Cap badge) or Corps and Infantry totals. Please note that a proportion of those who joined the untrained strength in 2016 may still be in training. Yes please, looking for Cap Badge of entrants from Scotland should this information exist. Finally please confirm that you require the information for both parts of your request by Financial Years 2014, 2015 & 2016. Yes please, If the information exists for each year then I would be grateful for this. If this is significantly time consuming then 2016 would be sufficient.’ I am treating your correspondence as a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) 2000.

  • The Working Environment of Interpreters, Translators And
    The care and feeding of linguists: the working environment of interpreters, translators and linguists during peacekeeping in Bosnia-Herzegovina Dr Catherine Baker University of Southampton Contact details: Department of Modern Languages, Avenue Campus, University of Southampton, Highfield Road, Southampton, SO17 1BF. Email: [email protected] Abstract: The history of war and peacekeeping has little to say about languages or the people who work with them, yet a closer inspection shows that contacts between different languages and the presence of an interpreter were a routine experience during the peacekeeping and peace-building operations conducted by the UN and NATO in Bosnia-Herzegovina. This paper shows how political, strategic, tactical and economic pressures affected the working lives of local civilians employed as interpreters/translators/linguists and the soldiers from the multinational force who served as military interpreters. In so doing, it argues that the history of interlingual communication deserves to be included in the history of conflict. The United Nations (UN) and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) operations in Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH) to safeguard humanitarian aid convoys and protect the UN safe areas during the war (1992–95), then implement and uphold the Dayton peace agreement which laid out BiH’s post-war settlement, required a multi-national assortment of soldiers and civilian defence staff to encounter a place of which they mostly knew little and forced the remaining inhabitants of BiH to encounter them. Indeed, the activities of ‘peacekeeping’ comprised a multitude of intercultural encounters not only between the peacekeepers and the local civilian and military populations but also between the soldiers from more than 30 different national and military cultures who worked together at headquarters, in logistics or engineering projects, on weapons inspections and in combined training exercises.

    Rifleman Remand Kulung, G (Tobruk) Company 1 MERCIAN It is with great sadness that we record that Rifleman Remand Kulung, from G (Tobruk) Company, 1st Battalion The Mercian Regiment (Cheshire), attached to the Danish Battle Group, died of his injuries in the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham on Thursday 12 August 2010 of wounds sustained in Afghanistan. In the early hours of Tuesday 10 August 2010, a Chinook helicopter was conducting a resupply at Patrol Base Bahadur. Part of the helicopter came into contact with a sangar near to an accommodation area where Rifleman Remand was resting. The sangar collapsed and Rfn Remand sustained serious injuries. He was evacuated to Bastion Role 3 hospital before subsequently being moved to the United Kingdom for further treatment. At 1258 hrs on Thursday 12 August 2010, Rfn Remand Kulung died of his injuries in the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham with his family present. Rfn Remand Kulung was 27 years old and from Basaha, Barshedanda, Nepal. He enlisted in the Brigade of Gurkhas in December 2004 and joined 1st Battalion The Royal Gurkha Rifles in November 2005 at Folkestone, Kent. During his career, Rfn Remand served twice in Afghanistan; in 2008 and 2010. He moved with G (Tobruk) Company (a Gurkha reinforcement company) to 1st Battalion The Mercian Regiment (Cheshire) [1 MERCIAN] in January 2009. Whilst with the Battalion, he served on exercise in Kenya and on operations in Afghanistan. G (Tobruk) Company has been attached to the Danish Battle Group in the Upper Gereshk Valley in Helmand Province since April 2010.
