Great pics Ron, and a gorgeous tartan well made by Kathy.

But, I have to ask, 6 different outfits pics, at one time, not at your home? Ummh, where did you change? Most overlooks I have come across don't come with facilities? Did you bring a portable changing room, or what? I would think your changing activities would have gotten even more questions than the kilt!

Semper Fi my brother!

Hey McVarmit,

It was Viet Nam era...we just didn't know it back home back then....a few guys were getting sent over for disciplinary reasons.... a few "advisors" had stories and even movies...in retrospect its clear...back then it was still cold war...and...got out early in '66...March I think...

But do check out Kathy's website www.kathyskilts.com and set up a visit when you're down in Albuquerque for sure...neat lady, Marine family, and great craftswoman.

That is one more beautiful kilt. The pleat work on the back is superb, and I don't know that I've ever seen better work.

Thanks for the pix.

Pleats is why I buy from Kathy...she must have learned well at the Keith Kilt School....I'm sure others do well too. I'm just well sold on her work...

And KCW...just changed hose and flashes in the car...and t-shirt....few folks around. Same kilt the whole time. No biggie...but some contortions...
