Good advice given here all around. You also might want to consider than many members here are citizens of countries whose armed forces do wear the kilt as part of their uniform. (UK, Canada, Australia, etc.). Some may not like seeing a kilt (of any tartan) combined with a uniform that they feel it doesn't belong with. On the other hand, some don't care at all.
