One can only hope they are not sharing them concurrently.

I wonder if they are also "short" of the traditional undergarment :)

If there's not enough cloth "to go around" then maybe Scottish soldiers should go on a diet.

Well, a Scotsman clad in kilt once left a bar one evening fair,
And one could tell by how he walked that he'd drunk more than his share.
He fumbled 'round until he could no longer keep his feet.
Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street.

Ring ding diddle iddle i de o,
Ring die diddley i o.
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street..

About that time two young and lovely girls just happened by.
One said to the other with a twinkle in her eye.
See yon bonnie Scotsman so fine and handsome built.
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt.

Ring ding diddle iddle i de o,
Ring die diddley i o.
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt.

They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be,
Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see.
And there behold for them to view beneath his Scottish skirt,
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth.

Ring ding diddle iddle i de o,
Ring die diddley i o.
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth.

They marveled for a moment and then said we must be gone.
Let's leave a present for our friend before we move along.
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon tied into a bow,
Around the bonnie star the Scot's kilt did lift and show.

Ring ding diddle iddle i de o,
Ring die diddley i o.
Around the bonnie star the Scot's kilt did lift and show.

Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled toward the trees.
Behind the bush he lifts his kilt and gawks at what he sees.
And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes,
Oh! lad I don't know where you've been but I see you won first prize.

Ring ding diddle iddle i de o,
Ring die diddley i o.
Oh! lad I don't know where you've been but I see you won first prize.

The reporter should be set upon by a bunch of burly guys with cabers and hammers . . .

Error No. 1: A kilt is not a "skirt." It's made in a completely different way, and it will not fit a lady. That's why they make "tartan day skirts" for women.

Error No. 2: "Plaid" is not a pattern or color. It's a garment (the square of fabric now worn folded over the shoulder, formerly joined to the kilt, which was known at the time as the "belted plaid.") The pattern is referred to as "tartan."

This information is common knowledge and available to everybody, including reporters, not just those of us who belong to pipe bands or Scottish Country Dance Society chapters . . .

The usual British prejudice against the Scots, men whose families have defended Britain for many centuries.

The Scots will soon stand down, because there is no longer a community based Scottish Regimental system.

The Brits know they will stand down, and the Socialist government is trying to save money.

The reason the Brits do not want a community based regimental system is that the soldiers from it are not maleable enough, they know right from wrong, and speak up about it. The Brits want silent warriors, who do as they are told and keep quiet about it, and who cannot organize community politics in opposition to governmental liberal socialist faux pas at home and abroad.

Its the greening of the British military, which soon will be little better than a semi-armed peace corps, with a one button nuclear option. Very dangerous in todays world of Islamofascist community based jihad warriors.Now the Brits will not have a community based military to fight the strongly community strengthened jihadis. The Brits have traded their strength for weakness against a strong urban community based adversary. When the proverbial shite hits the fan, as it most assuredly will, and civil strive mounts in Britain thanks to the Islamofascists, the British military will not have the necessary community strength to cope with it.

I’m not sure if I understood. Is that decision a ‘market-driven’ one? For example, have they chosen a shop and a kind of kilts for every soldier? If they have, they should consider options like this:

Share their kilts? At the same time, lol? Concurrent or not, that would be the one time that wearing undergarments with the kilt would be the better choice.
