    X Marks Pin on Camo

    Was both windy and hot today (103F) so I used my X Marks pin as a kilt pin on my Tiger Stripe Camo AmeriKilt.

    Looked pretty sharp - I thought. Sort of like a regiment badge of some sort. More mysterious on the camo pattern.

    Alexis Malcolm sells a nice USAF kilt pin for only $36.00. I have one and I am very pleased with it. She carries kilt pins for the other US military services too.

    Look here (toward the bottom of the page):

    Where can I get an XMarks pin?

    Speaking of which . . . I saw a pic somewhere of a kilted chap wearing what appeared to be an XMarks t-shirt. Are those available anymore?

    No problem Ron. I've ordered some other stuff from them and remembered they had weapon shaped pins. I have no idea how big that one really is. The company is very good about shipping their products and I usually receive my orders in a few days.

    Dave, another cold warrior.
