Todd,
it appears we are again at odds on semantics. I am not questioning the entitlement in Scotland for armigers to wear feathers, including eagle feathers. I was questioning the 'entitlement' of armigers to wear eagle feathers in the US. Hence my recognition of Sandford's intent and meaning, but adding the clarification.
And I must point out that being an armiger and being an American citizen are not contradictory -- and if you don't believe me, then perhaps the words of George Washington on the subject would be appropriate:
Agreed, I have been working on my own submission to the LL for over a year now.
