As a retread I'd be in for both a USN and an Army tartan... but I'd also like to see the Scottish National. As popular as it is, why aren't they making one?

Did you do like my old pal Virgil Griffin?
He served in the Army in the Korean War, when the fighting was heavy. A few years later, after he'd got out of the Army, he went to visit relatives in Arkansas. He and a cousin got drunk and when they sobered up, they found themselves enlisted in the Navy.

Since when did the Navy lower their standards and allow lan' lubbers? :razz:
My Grandfather survived Pearl Harbour. He hated all other branches of the service. It would be nice to get a Navy tartan to honour him, even though we didn't get along or talk to each other to much. When he died, and I went to his funeral, I found out what he did on that day. Totally changed how I viewed him and I found my self filled with a new found respect for the man. I also saw where I get a lot of my suicidal courage. He was buried with full honours and guns and a flag ceremony.
I don't know if it would be right for me to wear that tartan, but I would. A very, very long history of the Navy in my family, and a long history of seafaring, and some small history of piracy.
It's better to be a pirate than to join the Navy.

No, long story but my time started in the Navy. Loved it but loved my wife more. Served in the Army in a much safer, less mobile capacity. Worked out in the end but my heart is still with the Navy and the freinds I left behind... hooyah.
