130 (Lowland) Field Regiment RA (TA) was formed in June 1939 with two batteries as a duplicate of 79 (Lowland) Field Regiment. A third battery was raised in February 1941. The Regiment sailed for India in June 1942 to join 14 Indian Infantry Division. It served in the Burma (Myanmar) campaign with 36 Division as an “Assault Field Regiment”, before returning to India. Post war 130 (Lowland) Field Regiment RA (TA) went into suspended animation in September 1946 and was re-constituted as 330 (Lowland) Medium Regiment RA (TA) in January 1947 at Troon. It later returned to Kilmarnock.
