Freedom Kilts invade Iraq

[The Wizard of BC]

I finally got some photos of a Freedom Kilt on duty in Iraq.

Who was it that was asking about the perfect kilt for the summer?

Bring your own M-16 and sunscreen.

Congrats Steve . Good PR no doubt.

Nice kilt, but forget the holiday location

Yeah.....I'm not seeing the poolside waitressing service they promised in the brochure...LOL

Congrats

And the friendly natives aren't all that's advertised either.

Not enough fire-power to be Jay

I love that digital Camo.

Hey Steve, would you consider a "gift" to one of our Canuck pipers currently in A'Stan? Possibly in CADPAT? Unfortunately, they are piping more than they would like, at the mo'.

If you'd consider it, I can arrange the coordinates.

The CADPAT fabric and digital pattern is licenced to the Govt. of Canada. No civilian use in authorized. I had 25 meters of the first version of CADPAT. Not the uniform fabric which is a very light, loose weave, that in my opinion would not do well in a kilt, but the heavy fabric that was used for kit bags. It had a teflon waterproof coating that took 5 to 10 washings to remove. The fabric was also very stiff and hard. It was a B***h to sew. I have since run out of that fabric and no more is available.
I do have a reliable source for the USMC MARPAT in woodland and desert patterns. I also have a source for the US Army ACU digital.
I saw some Canadian forces in Afganistan wearing MARPAT desert. If your piper would not mind that, I would be willing to support any troop 'in harms way' in any small way I can.
