army may revert, to the uniform of
the Erin of centuries ago.
A proposal is being considered by
the government that the army dress
as did Brian Boru'e soldiers when they
routed the Danes at the battle of
Clontarf. At present the soldiers are
garbed like American troops, except
that the uniforms are green.
One suggestion Is that the soldiers
wear kilts and shawls. But economy
leading objection since a kilt
takes more than three times as much
material as a pair of trousers.
Opponents of this scheme heart'
