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.

  • A Service of Thanksgiving to Mark the 70Th Anniversary of Ve
    Westminster Abbey A SERVICE OF THANKSGIVING TO MARK THE 70 TH ANNIVERSARY OF VE DAY Sunday 10 th May 2015 11.00 am FOREWORD Welcome to Westminster Abbey for this service of thanksgiving and commemoration on the 70th anniversary of Victory in Europe. The Abbey played a full part on the day itself. After making his public broadcast officially announcing Germany’s total surrender, the Prime Minister, Winston Churchill MP, went to the House of Commons to make a short address and then moved that the House attend at the Church of St Margaret’s, Westminster, the Parish Church of the House of Commons, to ‘give humble and reverent thanks to almighty God for our deliverance from the threat of German domination.’ The House then rose and followed the Speaker to the Church. In Westminster Abbey itself, on VE Day, short services of thanksgiving were held every hour from 9.00 am to 10.00 pm. An estimated 25,000 people attended during the day, with the Lord Chancellor and House of Lords attending at 3.00 pm. The short services offered ‘high praise and thanksgiving to the God of all mercies for the success which He has granted to us and to our Allies: for the faith which has upheld us through the years of danger and suffering; for the skill of our leaders and the valour and steadfastness of sailors, soldiers and airmen; for the hope that we are about to enter upon a righteous and abiding peace; for the holy memory and high example of that great company of men and women, known and unknown, whose faith and courage God has inspired and used.’ A service was also held on the following Sunday, 13th May, when the standards of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa were laid on the High Altar to symbolise the loyalty of the whole Empire during the war.
