Cool story. I am jealous. I do not wear US military tartans out f respect. I do understand that others wear them for the same reason & I'm OK with that. The Marine Corps was the service I tried to join right out of high school. I got “caught.” I only have 1 eye. The other was shot out with an arrow when I was 2.

Wow. This is freaking weird. If you're not joking anyway.
There was an accident when I was born and one of my eyes is pretty much useless. Basically just looks like if you've ever seen an elderly person with a cataract. Anyway, I too only have one eye (basically) and tried to join the Marines straight out of high school (lots of family history with the Marines) and was disallowed entry for the same reason. And I love kilts too. Seems we've a bit in common.
