EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a special moment in Scottish football history as members of the Armed Forces lead out the Rangers Football Club squad during the Scottish Cup Final of 2003. The image features Leading Hand McGrath from the Royal Navy, Marine Swales from the Royal Marines, Corporal Anderson from the Army, and Corporal Hyslop from the RAF, proudly carrying the Scottish Cup trophies and leading the team onto the pitch. The Armed Forces Tribute: Salute to Heroes was a moving pre-match ceremony that paid tribute to the sacrifices and dedication of the men and women in uniform. The event was a collaboration between the Scottish Football Association and the Ministry of Defence, and was designed to honor the military personnel who had served and continue to serve their country. The sight of the soldiers leading out the team was a powerful reminder of the connection between the military and football in Scotland. The Rangers Football Club, one of the most successful and iconic teams in Scottish football, has a long-standing tradition of supporting the Armed Forces. The team has a military wing, the Rangers Armed Forces Association, which was established in 1953 to provide support to serving and former members of the Armed Forces. The photograph captures the excitement and anticipation of the Scottish Cup Final, as well as the deep respect and appreciation for the sacrifices made by the Armed Forces. The image is a testament to the enduring bond between football and the military in Scotland, and is a fitting tribute to the heroes who serve their country both on and off the pitch.
