    Help me ID a tartan

    My wife is in Brainerd, MN, at the funeral of a cousin who was a firefighter for 24 years. Massive MI at the age of 56. He was dead before he hit the floor.

    Anyway, since he was a firefighter, there were two trucks and a gazillion fellow firefighters at the funeral. There were no pipers -- small town, y'know -- but one of the firefighters was kilted.

    My wife, Norwegian that she is, approached him and asked what his tartan was, but she didn't remember when she called. She swears it was "Mac-something" and said it "brown" was a prominent color.

    I'm drawing a blank. Any guesses?

    Pretty much a needle in a haystack job. It would probably be easier to track down the wearer...

    Nevertheless, a wild guess: MacKenzie Muted Brown http://www.clan-mackenzie.org.uk/clan/tartan.html
