    My first TANK!

    Thursday afternoon I left Saint George Kansas for Chattan Cat’s house to pick up my new kilt and modified suit jacket. I decided to wear my MARPAT (Marine Corps Pattern) camouflage Sport Kilt for the long drive there.



    Once there I tried the kilt on and it fit really nice and although I have lost a few pounds Chattan Cat assured me that after my retirement from the Army the kilt will fit even better. After a cold beer I removed the basting stitches and tried on the modified suit jacket.








    The sleeve button details.




    Chattan Cat’s wife once again prepared a gourmet meal and my hunger was rewarded with a fantastic well cooked and healthy meal.

    I will post some better pictures of me wearing kilt.


    On the way home I stopped in Kansas City for lunch and a beer here.


    Unsure why I am blurry in this beer picture.

    Very nice tank! Congrats!

    And you stopped in at my namesake pub for a couple of pints--no wonder the photo is blurry!
