Aberdeen Fortress Royal Engineers
The Aberdeen Fortress Royal Engineers was a Scottish volunteer unit of the British Army formed in 1908. Its main role was defence of the Scottish coast, but it served on the Western Front during World War I. In the 1930s it was converted into an air defence unit, in which role it served in World War II.
==Origin==
The unit was formed in 1908 when the Territorial Force (TF) was created from the former Volunteers under the Haldane Reforms. The 1st Aberdeenshire Engineer Volunteers, which had existed since 1878, was split to form the 1st Highland Feld Company and Highland Divisional Telegraph Company of the Highland Division, and the City of Aberdeen (Fortress) Royal Engineers.〔Beckett, Appendix IX, p. 320.〕〔Westlake, p. 4.〕〔(''London Gazette'', 20 March 1908. )〕〔(Aberdeen Fortress Engineers at Regiments.org )〕 The latter unit consisted of a single Works Company, which continued to share its headquarters at 80 Hardgate, Aberdeen, with the Highland Field and Telegraph companies.〔''Monthly Army List'', August 1914.〕
