Congratulations on your choice!
And although I've not received my U.S. Army kilt yet, I'm doubting the greens would match well. Although I do plan on trying to find a Blue Mess Jacket which only appears to need epaulets added (assuming you're wearing a fly plaid) although I'd have to verify this in person.

I want one of those!

[Warlock]

Question is can NCO's wear mess jackets or is it only resrved for certain ranks?

Crikey! I hope not!

The end is nigh. The day of the pirate is passing. Service not servitude, Dude.

ME!? Respectable!? Bite your tongue! Bad Pirate! No Rum!

NO RUM?

**Draws rapier and pistol** Stand and deliver- Or Ol Hob will claim you!

Run me through and shoot me! I'll never tell where the rum is! *hic* Just don't shoot me in the head. Bullets have been known to ricochet off it!

The mess jacket, as are all uniforms (AFAIK) are open to all ranks, however general officers do have the right/priviledge to modify them however they see fit. There are however provisions for what the cuff ornamentation is. It's all described in [url http://www.apd.army.mil/pdffiles/r670_1.pdf] Army Regulation 670-1[/url] under "Chapter 24 - Army Blue Mess and Evening Mess Uniforms—Male"

Headshot? No way... I aim for the flask.

Congrats! Although I'm ex-navy (Never Again Volunteer Yourself), I've also done a bit of soldiering. There's a long an honourable relationship between wearing th' kilt, & "gone to be sodjers". Well done!
