CNN Kilted Heroes
On CNN tonight they showed a presentation of awards to persons they considered heroes. Some were "everyday" heroes and some were honored due to a specific event.
One of the recipiants was John Smeaton, the bagage handler from the Glasgow Airport, for his actions during the attack there.
Video here:

During his acceptance he was decked out in a PC with matching Kilt and bow tie. He gave one of the most Humble speaches I've ever heard. If I ever fly into Glasgow I'd love to shake this mans hand!
