    Nope! Havent been asked that yet.People usually respect the uniform when they see it. And I might add that the Dress Blue uniform has gotta be the best looking uniform in the world, even though its bifurcated.

    Dadburned Jarhead!

    You have to go and make a comment that even an old Air Farce hand can't argue about!

    I must agree Marine full dress is most impressive.

    Dress Blues

    Yeah, Doc, but dress blues don't quite have the same luster until you've pinned on that blood stripe!

    If you cannot wear kilts all the time, what you are wearing is the next best thing. Also having a nice looking lady with you doesn't hurt either

    How we all differ in our experiences!

    In all my years of kilt wearing, I cannot recall ever having been in conversation with anyone who has told me they have a seldom-worn, special-occasion kilt in their wardrobe/closet!

    In a world where the majority of people are cynical or just plain areseholes, I see no need to be equally rude to people that have gathered the confidence to express what they see as kinmanship. I can guarantee that I have come across more people in kilts, or people that own kilts in Vancouver than a lot of people (except maybe Philly which seems to be little Scotland ). Some of these people have had kilts on backwards, or womens kilted skirts, or they are wearing some variation of a "kilt". Have a been a dink to them? did I lecture them or what they were wearing? or look down on them because they did not their kilts as much as me? hell no!

    I have said it before and I will say it again, the so called "weekend Wallaces" (dumb f**king term if you ask me) are the ones that kept kilts around for the last 200 years, they are still the majority and deserve respect for having the balls to wear a kilt at all. Let's stop taking away from the traditions of the kilt, so that we can feel more comfortable wearing a moderized variation of it.
