Looking for a Kilt Pin Idea for my New RAF Tartan Kilt

[PiobBear]

PiobBear - got excited about that badge until I saw it has the same cotter key back as the original...dang.

Maybe its time to look at headwear and the saftey pin option.

Another alternative to perforating your apron would be to mount the badge on a plain belt buckle; not hard to do if you're handy, or you could take it to a jewler. Personally, I wouldn't use a blanket pin; they're made for very heavy weight fabric, are nearly as big 'round as pencils, and serve no practical purpose at all.

Hey PlanoPiper,

That's what my father was, a Flying Sergeant in the RAF. He and his buddies speculated that they might be made RAF officers, but it never happened.

When the Army Air Corps finally arrived in England they were transferred to the Army Air Corps as 2nd Lts with a whopping pay increase.

Have thought about maybe getting one of those Air Force kilt pins to commemorate his dual service...but there wasn't an Air Force back then and combining the Army pin with the RAF kilt seems a stretch...
