Major General David Eastman MBE, General Officer Commanding Regional Command and Commander Cadets visited the Battalion. Maj Gen Eastman is the highest ranked officer to visit 2 Highlanders in nearly two decades.

Following an introduction to the Battalion from Commandant Colonel Gordon Rae, Maj Gen Eastman headed to the training area to meet cadets who were learning about fieldcraft, using ration packs and first aid.

Many of the cadets joined the Battalion during lockdown and were enjoying their first opportunity for face-to-face training on a gloriously sunny day in Aberdeen.
