A little gift from London
Hello Rabble!
I thought I would share what came in the mail for me today from my co-workers in London. During my return trip from India, I had mentioned to them how much I enjoy Scotland and bagpipes in particular. During the course of the conversation, I also mentioned that I am a part time kilt wearer (much to their amusement!)
So, in the mail today was a box containing these little gems....
All I can say is WOW!
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

Nice they'll look good anywhere you put them, perhaps it's the start of a new hobby:
scale model battle scenes.

Very neat. I think the one in the middle is either a Gordon or a MacArthur

They look hand painted not an easy task on such a scale especially when it comes to depicting tartan!
