I LOVE THEM!

They're great with kilts. I have three from What Price Glory. But I chose to decorate them with insignia in honor of my father's and my uncle's War II service.



This is the enlisted Ike jacket, decorated in honor of my late uncle Donald Stuart Macdonald who carried a Thompson sub machine gun across France and Germany and was with the first company into Dachau. Photo is at Lees Ferry, Arizona on the Colorado River. Kilt is weathered Gordon by Celtic Croft.




This is a photo of the Officer's Ike jacket decorated in honor of my late father's service in the Army Air Corps in War II. He was shot down at Kassarine Pass and fortunately for me was picked up by the First Armored and given a lift to safety as the entire Afrika Corps descended upon them. Sorry, don't have a better pic yet, this is about it. Pic is at Mormon Lake, AZ with the San Francisco Peaks in the background. Kilt is USA Kilts casual in Prince of Wales tartan.




And this is the RAF Battlejacket decorated in honor of my father's service as a Flying Sergeant in the Royal Air Force in 1942. He was on the Dieppe Raid. Need a better pic of this jacket too. Pic is at Antelope Pass on the Navajo Nation. Kilt is USA Kilts casual in Ramsay.

Again, all three of these jackets are from What Price Glory. And in my often less than humble opinion go very well with kilts. For the Ike jackets the difference between the enlisted and the officers is that the enlisted is more olive and the officers is more forest green. The enlisted jacket chest pockets are "outside" and expandable. The officer's jacket chest pockets are "inside" only the flap shows. And, of course the officer's jacket has side handwarmer pockets that the enlisted doesn't.

The RAF battlejacket has chest pockets similar to the enlisted Ike jacket but the RAF battlejacket doesn't have lapels like the Ike Jacket.
