Other countries do the same. And only because they were our forces are people in an uproar. If we want to talk about atrocities. Lets talk about our elected officials first..

Isn't the 2nd Battalion Black Watch at UK regiment from Scotland? I'm not trying to start any shit here, I'm merely curious. Some of my family are Clan Campbell (of Argyll) so I find these things very interesting. I know the Black Watch had a presence in Afghanistan and Iraq. Again, just curious.
quite a bit to research on the subject... I guess Israel would be a good starting point. Whadda you think
Yes, the Black Watch originated in the Scottish highlands. They served to kill or capture rogue highlanders that the English wanted dealt with. They operated mostly at night and thus wore a dark tartan, which led to them being called the Black Watch and eventually their becoming an entity within the English Army.
My folks are MacDonalds of Clan Donald, in the Ross-Shire area and were not part of the Black Watch.
I have an authentic Black Watch kilt that is about 140 years old but I rarely wear it, and certainly not when I went to Scotland (visiting Glencoe and then into the highlands north of Inverness).
Elements of the regimented Black Watch have participated in almost every war/conflict that the English have been involved in during the 20th-21st centuries.

Thank you! My husband is of Clan Mac Donald ancestry lol. I started becoming very interested in the history of our families as our kids got older and became adults. Out of everything Hurricane Katrina took from us, our kilts were one of the saddest losses. My daughter had her childhood kilt and tam in her upper closet, so it was saved, but everything else was a loss.
I know the regiment still has a place in active combat and in the Royal Horse Guards. It's kind of neat to re-visit these things since I'm only the 3rd generation of my family born in the States. Thanks for the bit of history
I've been doing genealogy for about 25 years and my Scottish side was an epic journey (my other side is Acadian, another epic journey, lol). Many of my Clan Donald ancestors fought at Culloden and escaped to the Black Isle when the English (along with several Campbell clans) defeated the Scots.Thank you!

The Black Watch were seen as traitors to their own country men when they were first put together by the English. But over time, their origins have been forgotten.
And sorry to hear about your losses during Katrina. My Black Watch kilt has been handed down to select males over the generations and I was the most recent in line when I started playing the Great Highland bagpipes (I also inherited a set of family pipes that were made in the 1860's). My other kilt is a clan MacClean tartan that one of my pipe teachers gave me.
As for this thread: don't die for your country...make the other poor bastard die for his.

That's really awesome- I think we talked briefly on another thread; my husband is of Cajun ancestry. They (obviously lol) settled along the Gulf Coast, Louisiana and the FL panhandle. That area is a huge melting pot of cultures- his mom's family is French, Irish and Houma Indian and dad's is Scottish.
We fared far better than most in Hurricane Katrina. We had good insurance and were not in our home when it flooded.

Absolutely zero pity for the pieces of shit afghans that fight for the Taliban or isis k and any other little tourist gorilla fighting group that poured into Afghanistan to fuckin kill American soldiers and non combatants. You take up arms against us you are mercilessly put down. All you commenters who have never been to that shit hole country can't ever understand what actually goes on over there. The insane level of depravity the Taliban inflicts on the people. The child rape is so goddamn is constant. The things that is done to any us troop, dead or alive, if these evil sick little ducks get ahold of them is far beyond what you people could even imagine. So fuck the scum that are depicted in these pictures! Along with their useless fuckin families. 5hey deserve everything they fuckin got. These pieces of dog shit should be nuked off the planet. Fuck em all.
Anyway u could show us history buffs a pic of that 140yr old kilt u got

Who cares they were all future terrorist anyway. The real crime is they didnt kill more camel jockeys
You win the award for stupidest shit said on any forum that ever existed. The US military has more than white people in it. This is war, this isn't Muhammed chopping some young hitchhikers head off for the lulz, or putting a journalist in a cage and burning them to death. If you're to stupid to understand this, there is no hope for your ignorant ass.

I fought in afghan 3 times and we kicked rag heid ass my man, politicians are to blame for the mess no us troops, we went to do a job but that job wasn't what we expected 🙄... Send us back in on full ass kicker mode and there'd be nae Afghanistan left or ragheids for that matter, religion is a farce and another way to control weak minded people
