Bydand.com is the web site for Bydand Forever, an organisation that recreates the 1st Battalion, The Gordon Highlanders, as they were during the Egyptian and Sudanese campaigns of the 1880s.  This site also offers unofficial information about the Regiment, useful links, and a registry to make contact with ex-Gordons.  We invite you to explore this web site (see the menu to the left to get started) and to learn more about our organization and about

'...the finest regiment that ever was.'

 

 

Bydand Forever (well...at least parts of Bydand) is extremely proud of long-time member Andrew Kelly, who is just wrapping up his last year of high school and a year as the Brigade Commander for the San Diego City JROTC programs.  In keeping with traditions, we are pleased to offer a pipe tune in his honour, 'Cadet Captain Andrew Kelly's Farewell to the San Diego Brigade'.  Click on his photograph to hear the tune (apologies that it's only an electronic version so far; proper recording to follow).  Thanks very much to John Spoore for his guidance on the composition and the second part...he did his level best to guide me away from errors...any that are left in are purely my own doing.
