    Here's another question for the experts. This is a military kilt,it has 4 buttons spaced evenly along the back above the pleats. There are 2 in front at the apron corners. What are they for? My other 2 kilts don't have them.

    Perhaps they're prototypes for modesty snaps...

    Heres a pic with the buttons in question. Any ideas on what they're for?
    IT has two more in front at the apron corners.

    Would this be one of those fabled Estate Sale Kilts?
