Ten soldiers from a Scots regiment are to be dismissed from the Army after failing drug tests.
The members of the Royal Scots Borderers, 1st Battalion the Royal Regiment of Scotland tested positive during a random test this month.
Army bosses have not disclosed the nature of the drugs identified, or the ranks of those who failed.
A total of 441 soldiers took part in the 5 February test at the Borderers' Dreghorn Barracks in Edinburgh.
The Army has a zero-tolerance policy towards drug-taking, with the majority of soldiers found to be taking them instantly dismissed.
