A Kilted Firefighter's Thread; Any and all talk about Firefighters and Kilts

[Garry Oak]

Welcome to XMTS, from another new guy!

When I get my first kilt, it's going to be one of Rocky's, in the FF Memorial tartan. I was a volunteer FF from June of '98 to November of 2004, and it was the USAK web site that prompted me to start considering wearing a kilt. Five years ago, I moved here to the old family farm, 900 miles from my old volunteer Department. I'm eight miles away from the local fire station, and that's outside the area that their guidelines permit. I miss running calls; it gets into your blood. I'll always think of myself as a a firefighter.

Now I'm off to look at the pictures that you've posted. ith:

Edited to add: I'm back; neat leather work!

I'm not a firefighter myself, but there are of course several on here. So to all of you- as the history written here says, you're all hero's. Bonnets off to you all! Law enforcement officers and firefighters (and all other uniformed servicemen) are certainly, in my opinion, deserving of their own subforum.

That is the primary reason behind our establishing a social groups. Establishing sub-forums for different groups would be counter-productive to our primary emphasis on kilts, tartans etc. There is an existing Firefighters Social Group: http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/group.php?groupid=67
