Uniform and unit reference

[trooper]

Starting a new sculpt and need some information on any ACW brigades or regiments of Scottish and/or Irish troops for the union that wore kilts as part of their uniform. Pictures or reference source, if anyone knows. I have not researched ACW that much and have not found anything on internet. Thanks

79th New York wore kilts as part of their parade uniform but I can't think of any that wore them in the field.

I agree. Service dress would have been trousers.
