Personal Memories and Tributes

Brian McKay, Major, Sable Scallops of Montrose, Second Regiment tells us:

"He was a Pelican and at one time or another active in the McFlandry's Guard; Graham's Grays of Montrose; and the Sable Scallops of Montrose, Second Regiment. He started out in Madrone; went to the Dragon's Laire where he was elected Seneschal but not allowed to serve because of a mistake back at coporate; went to Blatha-an-Oir and served as the Baroness' guard and Royal Guard to Their Magisties Baric and Lao; and finally to Dragon's Laire where he disolved Graham's Gray's and formed the Sable Scallops of Montrose, Second Regiment. The unit was not actually named until after his death when it was named for him.

As a member of the McFlandry Guard, he was invloved with the cerimonial guard of Queen Elizabeth II when she visited Seattle. He also was invloved in the St. Patrick's Day Parade and the raising of the Irish flag in Seattle each year until Mayor Rice refused to allow the carrying of the Brown Bess muskets or their firing as a salute as the flag was raised.

He died on September 18, 1996."

The "Colonel" as he was called, organized the McFlandry Guard. The McFlandry Guard was, for many, many years, the mainstay of An Tir's Royal Guards. It was also the way many a "newbie" was mainstreamed into An Tir.

For his various efforts he was recoginized as a member of the Order of the Pelican.
