    He's an Army Commando but doesn't appear to be attached to particular unit, otherwise his Commando shoulder titles would be prefixed with the number of his unit

    As a piper he may well have been attached to the Commando Basic Training Centre at Achnacarry?
    He shares the same shoulder titles and insignia as the Pipe Major T.A. Maclauchlan at C.B.T.C. Achnacarry
