Product information "Lieutenant Colonel HAMISH "Mad Jock" MacTAVISH"
“Mad Jack” MacTavish (1876-1982) was born into a family of famous
Scottish soldiers. His great grandfather raised his own regiment “The
Agile & Suffering Higblanders” to fight in the Americas during the
Revolutionary War.
“Mad Jack” himself was commissioned into another of the family’s
regiments “The Queen’s Own Scottish Murderers” in 1895. He saw extensive
service during the Boer War…the Great War…and the North West Frontier.
Our K&C Club figure shows him as he appeared whilst serving with
the regiment in the Khyber Pass in 1935. During the Second World War he
commanded a battalion of the Home Guard… “The Aucbensbuggle Volunteers”.
After War Service he emigrated to the Falkland Islands to run a sheep
farm. He was killed while attacking an Argentinian armoured personel
carrier with his walking stick during their ill-fated attempt to capture
the Falklands in 1982.
A brave soldier to the end!

Royal Marine on Guard Duty 1935
When the Great War (1914-18) ended, the strength of the Royal Marines
was at an all-time high of 55,000 men.
By 1935 the Corps had shrunk to 9,500 Marines with the amalgamation of
the Royal Marine Artillery and the Royal Marine Light Infantry.
All Marines now wore “blues” as their parade uniform topped off with
the traditional white “pith” helment.
With the joining of the two separate Marine units a new badge was
adopted…the Globe and Laurel which all Royal Marines wear to this day.
Our K&C Marine on Guard Duty carries the famous .303 SMLE (Short
Magazine Lee Enfield) with fixed sword bayonet.
