The men in our family wear red paint when we wear it. We wear it in this manor, two red lines in a "V" shape from the eyes towards the ears about 1 inch long. We then will take red on our finger tip and make red dots falling from our eye, in the form of tear drops. The Veterans in our family wears the tear drops on the Right side and the non-vets wear it on the left. We have also placed some red paint on our ear lobes, reason unknown, just have done it.
I was told this "V" protects us and the tear drops are for the enemy we have harmed or will harm.
This is all that I can remember since my grandfather and greatuncles have long passed when I was quite young. I do have another grandfather and other uncles that have passed some info but they weren't able to give much help before they too passed.
