play dress-up military photos

[OC Richard]

I did a thread a few years ago "soldiers or posers?" but my photos were on Photobucket which service I've dropped.

So here goes, delving into the fascinating realm of "play dress-up" photos, generally American soldiers on leave in Scotland, dressing up in the random bits of clothing and accessories which the photographic studio has to hand for that purpose.

The fascinating part is spotting the strange mix of civilian and military kit, and within the military items the mix of ranks and regiments, and things worn wrongly.

Some photos are obvious. At least here they've separated military and civilian items, but one can spot numerous issues with the Highlander at left. What regiment does he represent? It's complicated.
