I wore it on a dare
Last night, the Team leader comes across the radio and says, Mission brief at 0930. Training day. So I am wondering to myself, Self...what kind of training? I asked over the radio, "do you want full kit, or just 5.11's? (the kind of clothing we wear...do a keyword search) Team leader says...You can wear a kilt and flip flops, everyone else show up in 5.11's. Sure enough, at 0930 I was at the mission brief in my olive Utilikilt and sand colored 5.11 shirt. (with sandles, I don't own the flip flop type.) It lasted until about 0935 when the Program manager walked in along with the Security manager. No one minds if I wear my kilt around the compound after 5pm, but at a mission brief at 0930 was pushing it. I talked to the 07 a little later and he was fine with it. Good having a Navy SeAL Captain with a sense of humor.
