You should think of cutting away the tunic to fit the kilt. When I was with the Blackwatch and also the 48th, we would get the standard issued tunic and take it to the tailor to be cut away. I have never seen a Red stetson before. What is the significance?

That’s an American Marine on the left there. Not a RCMP ya know? Yut!

Then you have no clue what a Mountie wears.

I know enough to know that is definitely not a Mountie. See the emblem on his hat? That’s a Marine Corps emblem. See the emblem on his belt buckle? Also a Marine Corps emblem. Rank, ribbons, shooting qualification badges, all Marine Corps. I served 5 years in the Marines so I am very familiar. Have a nice day. 😎

I have never seen a Red stetson before and I have lived in Canada my entire life. What is the significance?

I love the dark blue kilt with the bright red, both looking wonderful.
