    Hello Joe. I don't know what part of the world you come from, but I suspect that you are in a different Army to the one that I belonged too. So I am not sure that I can advise you on what you can and can't wear. What I can do, is wish you all the very best for your futures.

    Good Morning Joe, I wish I could be of more help to you, but let me relate to to you my own thoughts. I was married after I was off active duty, but my wife also wanted a military style wedding.Since this was an evening affair, I chose to wear my Prince Charlie with mini medals and dirk. I found that wearing a mess white blouse, dress blue blouse, or Class A blouse was too long to wear with my kilt. It just didn't look right. I'm not familiar with USAF regulations, so I understand your confusion. Please remember that I am not making a recommendation, just relating my own personal experience. Good luck to the both of you, a long happy life, and thank you for your service. Welcome home brother!

    For starters, Hello and welcome aboard!

    You'll probably find that your standard blouse/jacket will be far too long to wear with a kilt. Also, most Nations' armed forces don't like mixing uniforms with non-uniform items.

    You might also wish to investigate the Regulation Doublet over the PC. It's more of a British Mess Dress jacket. This could be worn with the mini medals. If you're planning on renting you're probably going to be stuck with the PC though.
