Postcard - Uniforms of the 1st Battalion, The Queens's Own Highlanders (Seaforth & Camerons) from a painting by Douglas N. Anderson, circa 1970s. It shows two dress uniforms of the Queens's Own Highlanders (Seaforth & Camerons), a major in mess dress and a sergeant in No. 2 dress (trews). The background is Cameron Barracks in Inverness. Cameron Barracks stands on Knockentinnel Hill on the eastern outskirts of Inverness in Scotland. The barracks were between 1880 and 1886. Following the Childers Reforms, the barracks became depot of the Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders in 1881. During the First World War, the barracks was used to process many thousands of volunteer recruits. Returning wounded and demobilising soldiers also passed though the barracks towards the end of the war and on its conclusion. Conscientious objectors were, for a time, held here, as was the crew of a captured German submarine. The barracks remained in use as the base of the Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders until September 1960 when the regiment moved to Fort George, shortly before the amalgamation of Seaforths and Camerons.
