    Is that Spearhead? We did an exercise with them Iin Germany back in the 70's. I wish there were a generic British Army tartan.

    Love that "Go Army" tartan! Mine is a utility kilt, which I will wear tomorrow during game day (Ole Miss v. Alabama) I'll post a photo or two. Hadn't thought about sewing a patch on it but as a graduate of the 7th Army NCO academy at Bad Tolz, 1977, it would be a cool addition to have the "ascending stairway", shown below on the sleeve of my (for ceremonies) Eisenhower jacket.

    Some kilts I've seen actually have a velcro strip blended in for patches, etc., to be worn or not....

    This would have been in Wolfenbuttel probably 73 or 74, so just before your time. I was in the 17th/21st Lancers which no longer exist under government cuts. Click image for larger version.
