ATTN: MARINES and the rest of ya

[switchblade5984]

I am going to the USMC ball on 11 Nov 2006
i am having Alexis Malcolm make the kilt
5 yard pleated to stripe(not sure if it will be to the double yellow or the red stripes idea behind the red is for the yellow to flash as the kilt moves)

need to know what to wear with it!

please post any pictures you have of marine corps kilt items and where you got them if you recall

INCLUDING KILTS not just tartan swatches!

Just a quick note to tell you how much you're going to LOVE your Alexis Malcolm kilt. I have one of her 8yd kilts, in the Ireland's National...it's beautiful, comfortable, well-fitting, and everything I could want in a kilt!

Alexis does wonderful work, I have a Hillwalker in USMC. I know your new kilt will be great.

and also,

Don McKee that Todd mentioned has a plain pewter kilt pin just like the one on his web site only without the gold in his collection but is not on his site. It's the ONLY one like it.

sorry about the shopping mode!

It occured to me that most of the USMC tartan kilts I've seen at games have been worn by members of the Scottish American Military Society (SAMS). There are a lot of chapters with websites. You might find some pics on them.

If you go to this site http://docwalker.smugmug.com/keyword...tic/2/57086442
and go to the fifth photo, there is a shot of the backside of a leatherneck tartan I believe. The guy carrying the white flag in the middle.
