Anyone, OC perhaps,

I have not been able to satisfy my curiosity concerning the kilt ribbons. What I know is that they were (are) worn in the military by officers and NCOs. I would like to know more in this regard. I've seen some pipers sporting them very well, but I don't know the "rules" They are a bit more than mere fashion, but I find little history on the specifics.

I am doing research for para-military application so more research is much better than too little. If you can guide me to where to look for quality information then I will continue to do my own homework. Thank you all.

I have little or no experience with foreign military and custom and it is not so common (yet) here in the states.
