So marrying Scots kilt traditions and British decorations is one thing and marrying up Scottish kilt traditions and retired American servicemen and their decorations are very different. There are several threads on the subject that you might seek out. Good luck to you laddie.
Jock Scot-Thank you; you've nailed the issue on the head..."marrying" UK traditions with our own can be "muddy" water; especially when you may be the youngest man in the room.
