Lt Col Harry S. Pedwell, CD leads the 48th Highlanders of Canada at a mini-tattoo at Fort York on Saturday 28 May as part of a series of events marking the 125th anniversary of the 48th Highlanders since their founding as a reserve (militia) infantry regiment in Toronto in 1891. The 90 minute tattoo featured the regiment’s Pipes and Drums, their volunteer Military Band, and soldiers in competitions. General Jonathan Vance, CMM, MSC, CD, the Chief of the Defence Staff, took the salute of the march past of the 48th Highlanders. The 48th Highlanders Pipes and Drums of Holland, a band composed of reenactors from the town of Apeldoorn, participated in the tattoo having travelled from The Netherlands to honour the 48th Highlanders who liberated their town in April 1945.
