    From Bernard Fergusson's book, The Black Watch and the King's Enemies:

    Our training went on in North Africa and reinforcements were coming in after our previous losses. I was glad to see the remarkable reappearance of Pipe-Major Roy after his spectacular escape from Greece through Turkey. He walked in unannounced dressed in a blue coat and grey flannel trousers and was given luncheon in the Officer's Mess to celebrate his return.
