Well it is not the Leatherneck tartan, it is actually the County Limerick Irish tartan. My Grandmother was born there. And my handle is because I spent 20 years serving as a U.S. Navy Seabee. For those who don't know The Seabees are the Navys construction Battallions (C.B.). We are not quite Sailors and not quite Marines (C.B. =confused bastard). They have a very proud and glorious history dating to their formation at the beginning of WW2. Many Meadals Of Honor Including the first awarded in Vietnam. John Wayne even made a movie about us.
