    Looks good on you. Keep on wearing it.

    I am a US Air Force veteran, Dad was Army, and my brother was Navy. I regularly wear an Air Force or Navy Sportkilt. Haven't got around to buying an Army one yet. Nobody has yet questioned me yet about the significance of the tartan on any of my kilts.

    Congrats on a successful first outing, I too wore my kilt in public for the first time not long ago and like you found it to be a very positive experience.

    I don't know if you are a reader, but I would recommend James Robertson's biography of "Stonewall" Jackson. He teaches at Virginia Tech and is an expert on Jackson.

    I am also currently reading a book about the other Jackson (Andrew) by H.W. Brands which I would highly recommend.

    Blessings,

    Not sure if this was directed at me or not, but I am indeed an avid reader. I will take your advice on that biography of Stonewall. My dad may already own it. He's a history teacher who specializes in the Civil War. He's got his own no so small library. And if this was indeed directed at me, I was unable to serve to my disapointment. However, I have in the past organized rallies, and I do my best to educate on their rights- particularly the first ten amendment, which people have absolutely no real understanding of.
