GUEST,Charmion's brother Andrew army surplus tough cotton combat kilts? (34) RE: army surplus tough cotton combat kilts? 13 Apr 06


Another reason you will not find a kilt on a soldier on operations in this day and age: NBCD. Consider the sort of contamination to which a soldier in a kilt is vulnerable. Can you get your bunny suit on over it? No? Then it is no longer a useful bit o' kit.

The people who thought kilts were a suitable dress for Canadian regiments were not the same people buying real estate for training areas -- one only has to look at how common poison ivy is. In Manitoba it typically grows about scrotum-high.
