I can see where you might make that connection, Brian, but the Leatherneck has an 8.8" sett and HONY 1aaa is 8". (I know that doesn't seem like a big difference, but to my designing eye it looks huge.) Leatherneck has 4 colors which are quite bright and HONY 1aaa has 6 colors, and they are, in the main, much more muted than those in the Leatherneck. At first glance there might be a little confusion but I'm confident that those who know and recognize the Leatherneck would not mistake the two.
