This thread reminds me of my grandfather, may he rest in peace. My grandfather was in the US Army Air Force with the 14th Air Force in the China-Burma-India Theatre of the Second World War. Needless to say, he worked with and saw quite a few British, Australian, Indian, etc. soldiers whilst he was there. He always had a great respect in particular for the Scots, especially the Black Watch, who fought against the Japanese in Burma. In his later years, my grandparents would never miss the performance of the regimental bands that would come to the Sundome in Sun City when they lived in Phoenix. They would always send me a tape and/or a program from the show.

Cheers,

Todd
