Families greet fusiliers back from Helmand

Fusilier Kristofer Crawford cradles his two-week-old son Dominic after the The Royal Highland Fusiliers returned to Glencorse barracks from a six-month tour of Afghanistan.

The 27-year-old, pictured with daughter Hannah, 3, was among the last soldiers of 2 SCOTS to be greeted by their families after months of tough operations battling insurgents in the Lashkar Gah region of Helmand province.

No fusiliers were killed during the six-month tour.
