The Fife & Forfar Yeomanry/Scottish Horse (FFY/SH) is a Yeomanry Squadron of the Queen's Own Yeomanry part of the British Territorial Army. It was formed following the amalgamation of The Fife and Forfar Yeomanry and The Scottish Horse regiments. The squadron is C Squadron of the Queen's Own Yeomanry which is assigned to the 15 (North East) Brigade, 2nd Division. Because of the geographic spread of the regiment C Squadron is administered by 51st (Scottish) Brigade. The Queen's Own Yeomanry is the only yeomanry regiment that serves in the formation reconnaissance role, equipped with the Scimitar and Spartan armoured reconnaissance vehicles. On mobilisation, it would reinforce one of the regular army formation reconnaissance regiments. The squadron provided personnel for active service during Operation TELIC, where they served with their regular counterparts in the Royal Armoured Corps. The FFY/SH and its antecedent Regiments have won numerous battle honours and one Victoria Cross. ==Organisation== C (FFY/SH) Squadron QOY is based at Yeomanry House on Castlebank Road in Cupar and consists of a Squadron Headquarters Element (SHQ), two Sabre Troops, a Squadron Quarter Master Sergeant (SQMS) Department and a REME Light Aid Detachment (LAD). One additional troop is located at Strathmore Cavalry Barracks in Forfar but is administered from the Cupar SHQ. The squadron is supported by Adjutant General's Corps clerks, Royal Logistics Corps chefs and Royal Army Medical Corps medics. The TA officers and soldiers hold all of the command appointments but on a day-to-day basis the unit is managed by a team of Non-Regular Permanent Staff (NRPS), Permanent Staff Instructors (PSIs) (SNCO instructors posted from the Regular Army) and civil servants. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fife and Forfar Yeomanry/Scottish Horse」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
