If you want a list of all members of all Scottish Regiments, that would be difficult to provide. A lesson the British learned from WW2 was if you an entire Regiment served in one campaign or battle, then if that regiment suffered high loss of life that it would have a detrimental impact on the region or town from where the regiment was organized. Therefore, British Regiments(including those designated as Scottish Regiments) were divided into Battalions and each battalion would serve in a different part of the war. Thus the battalion designated 1 Royal Scots would be sent to one campaign and the 2 Royal Scotts were sent to another. This kind of info might be available.
Around 34 000 Scottish soldiers were killed during WW2.

Regiments of black soldiers were formed in the Union army, led by white officers and black non-commissioned officers.While Lincoln had originally objected to forming black regiments in 1862, the need for soldiers pushed Union governors and general to enlist black soldiers. In all, six regiments of Colored Cavalry, eleven regiments and four companies of Colored Heavy Artillery, ten batteries of the Colored Light Artillery, and 100 regiments and sixteen companies of Colored Infantry were raised during the war. By the end of the Civil War, 190,000 blacks had served in the Union armed forces.
