My Pop signed up in 1937 to be a Marine. After service in WWII, Korea and Vietnam, he retired after 35 years, NCO of course Semper Fi!!!

I did not follow in his footsteps, instead he thought it important for me to go to college. I gave ROTC a try for two years (Air Force) and decided that life wasn't for me. Scouting prepared me for discipline, but the AF is another story.

Now I wonder, is it appropriate to own and wear a USMC kilt to wear in his honor in the same manner in which I honor our tartan?
