Military Pleats?

[AlamoQOCH]

What a treat to find this site. I'm in my third kilt now. Some stories there, eh?

But seriously. For a re-enactor portrayal, I'm working up an impression as a WW2 Highland Regiment rifleman, specifically the 4th Battalion Queens Own Cameron Highlanders, 152nd Brigade of Infantry, 51st Highland Division, British Expeditionary Force, France, June 1940. They were among the unfortunate BEF remnants who were cut off from the Dunkirk evacuation by the fast-moving Panzer forces under Irwin Rommel (who would find himself here exactly four years later with quite a different outcome). Surrounded, against the English Channel coast in the French village of St. Valery. There, two weeks after Dunkirk, the vastly-outnumbered, out-supplied, 51st HD, under a sky dark with the air-superiority Luftwaffe, surrendered to the encircled German forces. 4Bn QOCH was the very last unit in the British Army to wear the kilt in combat. Rifle = 1918 BSA SMLE Nr1 MkIII* in .303 calibre. Tartan = Cameron of Erracht:

(If you can see the tartan above -isn't that a nice one?, so how do I add it as a graphic for my screen-name image? ///Edited 30Nov07: Never mind; it's working now, despite the "upload failed" message.///)

Anyway, more importantly, I need to find a kilt-maker who can do the 'military' pleats in the back (so that the tartan pattern is maintained showing intact across the pleated back). I realize I might have to source the material directly myself from a woolen mill in Scotland. One kiltmaker in Scotland recommended "Chisholms" in Inverness. Anyone know anything about them? Any recommendations here in USA?
