Unfortunately, Scottish regiments are not part of the US Military. At least not in this Century.
Probably due to the loyalist connections during the War for Independence. The Jacobite rebels from 1745 swore an oath of allegiance that they would never bear arms against the British Monarch for sparing their lives.
