Woapalanne 11 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 What one wears under his kilt is strictly personal choice. No option is either more or less manly, as this is not the UK army (where such is specified). As a matter of fact, it is long tradition that one never says what he is or is not wearing, as the mystery is part of the mystique. And a gentleman or lady never asks. Period.

Mr. Boyce 13 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Here's something for the kilt crowd, a little song about Scottsman Tom Weir, adventurer: Link to post Share on other sites
Troop24 12 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Barthumphries after your more eloquent explanation of the link to culottes as an example of modest clothing and an attempt as an sniping comment on maleness I humbly apologize to you. I find the man-centered thought process that tries to mask all ills with testosterone and I think it is perhaps the root cause of so many suicides in the military of late. If you can't see an injury you are not hurt, "man up" and get back on the line there's work to do. That was the vein in which I took your comment. Link to post Share on other sites

Platypus96 10 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 When I staffed NYLT, we all had kilts as our official uniform. We were a venture crew, so we were allowed to decide our own class a, and the kilt was our choice. I am relativley certain that everyone was wereing somethinf=g under them, but I'm not completely sure... Link to post Share on other sites
Secretary 10 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Funny you should say that... When I was a Staff at NYLT we wore kilts and sporrans as part of our official uniform. It looked very nice and professional, and it helped created a bond among us staffers. Link to post Share on other sites
jhankins 10 Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Our entire staff for Wood Badge wore kilts. Some wore their family tartan, some wore the USMC Leatherneck tartan, some wore the University of California Riverside Pipe Band tartan, and others still wore the MacLaren. It was not only fun to learn about the history of Scotland and tartans, but it was a diversity experience for the staff and participants. http://www.snurgle.org/~polyhymn/staff.jpg Link to post Share on other sites

Eagle92 110 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Boyce, You remind me of an incident at NOAC. Ceremony competition was running late, and everyone was told you couldn't eat unles you had your uniform shirt on. Again had to have your uniform shirt on. SOOOOOOOO As soon as we finished competing, the entire ceremony team put on their uniform shirts over their regalia and ran to the cafeteria, getting some strange looks. Our reply was.... REAL MEN WEAR LEGGINGS! Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Boyce 13 Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 . . . ahh, very nice! Honestly, if kilts start getting issued, the next push will be for lederhosen. "Reflects an honorable heritage", and all. . . Link to post Share on other sites
