    Here I was today out at a thing...



    I don't know what the regulations were (or if it was a thing of regimental unwritten rules) but I've see numerous photos of WWII pipers wearing their Full Dress waistbelts with Battle Dress jackets. However they don't seem to wear the crossbelt or sergeant sash with Battle Dress, from what I've seen, even when they're wearing spats, coloured hose-tops, Full Dress sporrans, etc.

    Actually all sorts of things are seen, such as wearing coloured hose-tops with puttees, wearing Full Dress sporrans with khaki hose and puttees, and every other combination one could think of.

    (The guy in the photo above was an actual paratrooper... and I'm an actual piper...)
