    Kilts vs Trews

    It's not news any more -- I'm way behind in my newsreel watching -- and it was two or three amalgamations ago. But it seems in 1957 the kilts of the HLI were in danger again.

    Nice that the lads they interviewed were pro-kilt even if the Army Council weren't.

    Cheers,

    You are effectively way behind because this video has already been posted on XMarks, too!

    HeyMacCathail,
    I'll say again as I did the first time we discussed this...that was a great clip. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
