    I used the unit crest pins for a kilt pin from my boys. To honor them.

    Great pics, love the idea of using old unit crests as a kilt pin. I thought about doing the same but they seemed just a bit too small. Never thought about using multiple crests at the same time from the various units I was in. Might have see how that looks on my kilt now.

    Wow, how proud of your boys you must be! I can't imagine. My son never expressed any interest in the military, he's almost through with college now.

    Here's our band just after our Veterans' Day performance
