Just one other thing I like about this forum; people asking honest questions about the wearing of some item, honour, award or bobble that has honourific or other significance - and others being open in answering.

I'm, also curious about the ribbon. I could not find much online, though it appears to have German connections, is that correct?

We mix styles, but when it comes to kilts - or any national/regional/cultural dress - the mixing of culture starts getting a bit messy where one can't make a reasonable connection. So a Germanic swordsman's award from a school of instruction worn on highland dress gets a bit ..messy. Yet, if you had a Schuler (school) lapel pin - because lapel pins are ubiquitous - it becomes less obtrusive and more acceptable. No, this is not a hint to go off on a 'what is acceptable' with a kilt tangent. Simply some social commentary since OP could have asked the same question with regard to business dress - if this was a business dress forum.

Nothing says OP can't replace both of those Douglas tartan flashes with other colours, though. Indeed, some encourage it.
