The Gordon Highlanders were one of the British Army's most celebrated regiments. It was the local regiment of the North East of Scotland, and was first raised in 1794 by the Duke of Gordon, who was assisted by the Duchess of Gordon. It was said she offered a kiss as an incentive to join up. Always known as the Gordon Highlanders, the Regiment was officially designated the 100th Regiment of Foot, becoming in 1798 the 92nd Regiment of Foot, the numbering with which it has since been associated. The 1st Battalion of the Gordons was sent to Sudan, and was issued grey wool jackets, which were worn throughout the campaign. This was the uniform worn by the Gordons at the Battles of El Teb, and Tamai in 1884.
