I'm glad you are back safely. Thanks for posting the pictures; you look great! It must be really nice to have a sporran with so much significance to you. Happy New Year to you and your family.

Very nice.

So good to see you back at home and enjoying the family. The outfit is really fine, and the unique sporran sets it off nicely. Your wife is obviously a wonderful woman to be cherished. Not many of us got a customized sporran like that!

It appears that you are near Watertown. Camp Drum is a place I once visited to support some Marine reservists who were training there. A bit windy on occassion, as I recall. I remember seeing all the trees leaning the same direction and thinking, "Uh, oh."

Anyway, good to see you back. I leave with a quote (not verbatim since it's from memory):

"For those who have fought for it, peace has a fragrance the protected will never know."

Enjoy your peace, my friend.

Great looking sporran and kilt. And thanks you for your service to this country!

Beatiful overall look to the outfit, very sharp and well coordinated. Thank you for your service and welcome home!

I like your new sporran and your tartan.

**Inchessi** · 12th January 10, 06:45 AM

That is a neat looking tartan and the sporran is really cool. Still on leave while sporting the ensemble? Welcome home.

Glad you're back safely. Great kilt.

I've very grateful to Josh for his workmanship, a beautiful sporran, and the assistance that he gave my wife in making the purchase.

Thanks for the compliments all...and I'll try to smile next time! Bad habit of mine...everybody that doesn't know me at work thinks I'm really intimidating because I always look p@#$ed off...in reality I'm one of the most laid back, fun-loving guys around. Ah well...sometimes it's good to look mean!

Liar, I know you don't always looked PO'd. I have pictures to prove it. Nice to see pics of the kilt though.
