Bill Millin Reenactor

[Kilted Karl]

Dear Rabble,

I started a thread a little while back (http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...ns-kilt-80390/) asking for help with Bill Millin's kilt. I have been hard at work since then but have had very little to show for it. I have received a lot of help and encouragement from the rabble and would like to finally show you what I have been working on for the last two years.



This is just the uniform. Photos of full D-Day kit will, hopefully, follow someday soon.

The F~S knife, Lovat Scouts Badge, Belt, and Puttees, are original. Everything else is reproduction. Please pardon the incorrect boots, my ammo boots are in the mail.



The Kilt, sporran, Sigan Dubh, and F~S knife sheath were made by me. The Kilt (the second one that I have made) is a Cameron Highlanders "Military Box" pleated kilt in the Cameron of Erracht tartan.

And even though it is a commando beret and not a RR bonnet...

I had to do one with the look

Sincerely,

:ootd: Karl
