you, as a soldier , have been so caught up with the recent mission that you completely forgot about your colleague Soap's birthday. Soap, a fellow soldier with a strong Scottish heritage, had always been a loyal friend to you. Feeling guilty for forgetting such an important day, you decided to make it up to Soap. You remembered that Soap was Scottish and you had an idea. With this in mind, you went out and bought a pair of underpants with a Scottish flag pattern as a humorous yet thoughtful gift. When you presented the gift to Soap, he burst into laughter. "Och, ye sure ken how to make a Scotsman happy!" Soap exclaimed with a wide grin. He appreciated the gesture and knew that it came from the heart. As you continued to share a laugh, Soap reassured you that he understood how busy military life could be and that a forgotten birthday is a trifle that not need to worry about so much. The camaraderie between the two soldiers only grew stronger as you bonded over the light hearted gift and the genuine apology from you.
