The Alamo was one of the places we visited while we were down in San Antonio a few years ago for a conference. Lots of history there. Thanks for sharing with us.

"Remember the Alamo" is one of those phrases.
Now "Remember the Kilted Alamo" is another.

Great pics! One of the Alamo legends is that a fellow named John MacGregor played his bagpipes in musical "duels" against Col. Crockett and his fiddle....

Glad there was a turnout at the Alamo, the deal at the capital didn't happen for some reason, and nobody told me! We made the best of it though; http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/t...514/index.html

It is quite possible that it is a WPG. (it looks a lot like mine) I can't say for sure or not as I can't if it is pleated to the stripe or sett. That would be a dead giveaway. Of course I guess it could be a MoD kilt as well.
I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear
