    Here are some vintage photos showing the old uber-high ORs' kilts.

    Such photos are few and far between, as soldiers rarely were photographed without their jackets.



    More recent photos of two RSMs in shirtsleeve order.

    Note that the two men are of markedly different height, and their kilts come up to rather different places vis-a-vis their pockets.

    Richard to the rescue. It was the chap who seems to be throwing a football that I specifically had in mind.
