PC at a Military funeral?

[kiltedsawyer]

A decenting voice perhaps, but let me say this; as others have remarked about not wearing the kilt to church so as not to provide a distraction, you may want to consider that this is your father's day and a day for all who wish to honor and remebmber him. It may be wise to forego the kilt to allow the thoughts of all present to focus on your father. While I am sure that you are a proud legacy for your father, it is he that all seek to honor and cherish at his funeral. I would perhaps choose a more conventional mode of dress for this event and wear the kilt to honor his memory at a later event, a wake or other event to honor his memory. My condolenscenses for your loss,
Respectfully,
David

Thanks for your reply Kiltedsawyer, Actually it was my entire family that asked if I was going to wear my kilt. I understand about not drawing attention to myself at this time. But I also wanted to respect the wishes of my mother. I know this is a convoluted issue and I appreciate your input.

First a welcome and condolences on your sad loss. I can see no reason not to wear your PC and you may want to wear a normal black tie in place of a bow tie because it is daytime.
