The Scottish Transport Regiment

The Scottish Transport Regiment, Royal Logistic Corps, is a regiment of the Territorial Army in the United Kingdom.

The regiment was formed in 1993 by the amalgamation of 153rd (Highland) Regiment and 154th (Lowland) Regiment of the Royal Corps of Transport, with four transport squadrons and an HQ squadron. An additional rations squadron was later added in 1999, but has since been transferred to 159th Support Regiment.
