Unsourced entry[edit]

The following paragraph was removed as unsourced. If anyone can help with a source, please provide. Scottish regiments based in Ritchie Camp were required to provide the Royal Guard at Balmoral. One of their duties was to run film shows for the Royal Family. Projectionists received their training in the camp cinema, a relic of the American occupants. The building used as an officers' mess was designed on the American officers' club style. One of the hangars on the airfield housed to Motor Transport (MT) vehicles. The airfield itself was used for driver training, low level military training and recreation. There were insufficient houses for soldiers' families locally; additional housing (married quarters) was provided in Lanark and Edinburgh. Shipsview (talk) 20:54, 22 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
