    Talking After Action report

    On Saturday, August, 30th at 1:15pm, the Kilted Trooper Brigade, inducted Mr. Ray Park as their Honorary Leader.

    The Brigade’s Chieftain, Joseph Schönberger (TK-3699) presented Ray with an award that featured the group’s Clan Crest, Ray’s name and rank (Honorary Leader), and the quote; “At last we have our revenge!”, 2008.

    After the presentation and acceptance by Ray, Joe then announced that in order for Ray to be a proper leader of the Kilted Trooper Brigade, he would need a kilt in the Clan’s tartan.

    Three lasses from the KTB, Andrea Samulewicz (TK-4874), Cheralyn Lambeth (TK-0976), and Mary Alice Ladd (TK-8228) enthusiastically measured Ray for his kilt.

    After Ray was measured, a Clan shirt and patch was given to him. Ray removed his tee-shirt, much to the join of all the females in the area and put on his KTB shirt.

    To properly close the ceremony, Joe Ogulin (TK-2989) played “Scotland the Brave” on the bagpipes. Ray was speechless. He started dancing and hollering and having a great time.

    Ray won a vote unanimously by the members to lead them. Ray was born in Glasgow Scotland.
