    Thumbs up US Air Force "Scott"

    Dave here from Denver, Colorado. US Air Force retired, and close to retiring again from federal service. Might sound strange, English and Italian by heritage, started wearing a utili-kilt last year at the local Scottish Festival and I love it. I have been putting together a more traditional outfit but not being a Scott I didn't know what was acceptable (I'm a bit fanatical about being correct, you should see my renaissance costumes). Found this web site during a net search - best place for advice! How and what to wear has been the most helpful. Chose the Air Force tartan (Lady Jane of St Citrus) since it seems the most appropriate, I know it will look great (the wait is killing me).

    Well met Dave. Until the kilt comes, think of it as a training exercise of "Hurry up and wait". Look to the tartan designs of areas (example; Isle of Skye) when thinking of a future kilt. Glad to have you with us.

    Another Air Force vet wearing the kilt

    Hi dave, I am also retired Air Force and wearing the same Tartan as I have no clear Scottish link in my past. I think the tartan looks great, and I am proud to wear it. Welcome
