Maureen Yes I believe it was a French magazine and I’m not sure if there was / is an English translation**. Forum member @uncle bill used to work as a translator for the magazine so he might know something, although he’s not visited the forum since 2019, so I don’t know if he’s hale and hearty. I wonder if forum member @battle of loos might have a copy of that edition? Michel is always very helpful. Similarly @Tom A McCluskey who was last seen here 2018. **apparently there was but with a very small print run.

I am founder trainer for the College of Master Kilt Tailors and I feel this would be valuable information for the students. I hope that this Gentleman’s Military Interest Club thread might be of interest to you too Marion and I wish you well with your endeavours: https://gmic.co.uk/topic/32407-kilts-for-the-2nd-bn-seaforth-highlanders/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
