Advice on a planned outfit for a parade. Servicemen please chime in.
Ok Boys and Girls, here is the deal -
I work at a local Renn Faire that runs through Memorial Day. I generally do not wear a Kilt to the faire, because I am in the forge all day. But every year on Memorial Day, they gather up the Veterans (both employees and patrons) and we participate in a Parade throughout the Faire campus, wearing yellow sashes. Some people wear military accoutrement, and one gentlemen even wears his actual Korean War era Chief Petty Officer's uniform complete with Thompson Sub.
This year, I really want to do something special to honor both my service, but mostly those who went before me. With my tax refund, I will be ordering an Edzell 5yd wool kilt from USAK. With it, I would like to wear one of my old Dungaree shirts, dixie cup, flight deck boots, with some gaiters. I would only wear it for the parade and remove it directly after (I gotta get back to work!).
Do you guys think that this would be in bad form? Disrespectful? or A-Ok?
