    Binghamton, NY, Nov. kiltnight

    Some pics from last night's gathering. Some of us dressed up a bit more than usual, in honor of Veterans' Day.



    X-Marker Bob C. and wife Kim:




    This is Victor Hutchings, his wife Anne, and son Ken. Victor is our kilt-night "guru"! He and Anne emigrated from Scotland in the late `50's. He is a WWII vet: Royal Navy, was torpedoed twice by U-boats, and participated in the D-Day landings. Quite the old fellow, with many great stories:

    Which one? How about names and tartans for that first pic? I think I recognize some of both, but not sure.
