People will see things differently, but I think, the advice I was given is still sound. Although, I do carry one of my long gone uncles’ Black Watch SD in my hose, but I ensure that St. Andrew and his cross are not visible.
I have an old silver Gordon Highlanders cap badge I wear on my glengarry for piping competitions. I've never had anyone comment on it. One of my teachers was pipe major of the first battalion band. I purchased it for a few reasons.. to remember him, PM G.S. McLennan is my favorite composers of pipe music and I've always liked the way stags look. I think I'll stick with civilian attire for the rest of my kit.
