    Welcome, from a Whidbey Islander currently living in the middle of nowhere.
    The grass is greener on the other side of the fence...and it's usually greenest right above the septic tank.

    We met an Army major at the Clan MacKenzie International gathering who was in the pipeband at WestPoint during his 4 years there. Congrats and good luck to you.

    Somewhere in my files I have a brief history of the USCC Pipe Band from the Company of Military Historians, which also produced a colour plate of the uniform, circa the late 1970s. Do you have a copy of it? If not, I'll gladly try to track it down for you.

    Regards,

    Todd

    If you could post that history on the facebook page i will make sure it finds its way into our description.

    I dont have the plate you speak of but i do have our uniform(s) [we have 6 uniforms] in my closet! Regardless feel free to dig for it, part of our re-building is getting in touch with our history and old strories and photos are great for that!
