Perhaps I'm confused here, having been awake for some 30 hours, but aren't the Texas Highland Ri**es a Scottish regiment of sorts?

I personally was not offended by the Colonel's post and I may very well be alone in that. However, the fact that he had to censor his post so as not offend anyone and then was attacked for it does offend me.

If I lived in Texas, Louisiana, Oaklahoma or Arkansas: I would definitely support resurecting the unit. Heck, I live in California and I do support it. I think what they did before they lost their funding is great. As far as I know we don't have anything like that out here.
