    Dan R Porter are you suggesting that i am not a Marine. By your last post it seems that you are questioning it.
    Thank you Angus. I respect your USMC service, and would do nothing to bring shame to the tartan or the Corps.

    I'm sure Dan is not making any suggestions that you are not who you say you are.

    Would a moderator close this thread before this gets too heated?

    That's all we ask. Wrap it on and wear it with pride.

    ColMacneal - I've been watching this post with pleasure. It's one that could have gone off the rails but has not. I attribute that to the levelheadedness of the Marines that post here. I live close by Camp Lejeune and MCAS Cherry Point and have nothing but pride for the way our local Marines conduct themselves. To honor them, the kilt I am currently jonesing for is genuine Dessert Marpat.

    So, with respect sir, this is one post that I don't think the moderators need to close just yet.

    Found the post, FYI ColMac as the question has been asked before and will be asked again. Please note post #17, that of Bob Hall designer of the tartan. There is no doubt that you will wear it with pride and honour.

    Thanks BD,
    I was just trying to be a responsible X-Marker (no kidding) and try to prevent this thread from being deleted.
    Cheers ColMac
