1st Lothians and Border Yeomanry brooch

This website is in memory of the 1st Lothians and Border Yeomanry in their 1939-1940 campaign. It does not cover the second line 1st Lothians (1940 - 1945) or the 2nd Lothians and Border Horse, although mention is made of these regiments here.

The 1st Lothians and Border Yeomanry are also known as 'The Lothians' or 'L&B' or 'L&BY' and even the 'Loathsome and Bloodies'! or 'Laugh and Be Happy'.

This website would not be what it is without the many contributions from ex-Lothians, family and friends. Thank you, all of you, for your generous time, photos, information and memorabilia.

You are welcome to comment on the information in this website and to add any memories or information that you have about 1st Lothians and Border Yeomanry.

To comment, ask questions or generally chat about the Lothians, email LothiansKing@1stlothiansandborderyeomanry. co.uk.
