    STA members, can you help

    I've been looking at various tartans representing one sort of military service or another, mostly out of curiosity, just something to do. However, I decided to see if there might be something specific just for me.

    I served a tour in what is sometimes known as the Second Korean War, or the DMZ War. I think of it is America's unknown war, so few of us participated, and the whole matter was kept hushed up. It was in its own way a nasty little war.

    So, I looked for a Korean connected tartan and all I could come up with is this:

    http://www.tartansauthority.com/tart...-korea-fashion

    There is of course, no image of it, nor thread count. If you'd be so kind, would a member or members of the STA, look up the thread count and share it, else generate an image of one of the better tartan picturing programs. I'd just like to see what it looks like. Don't know if I'd ever buy any, it most likely would be a custom weave, 'though perhaps it's available somewhere, as it is a fashion tartan.


    About the designer, David McGill, his name seems like it ought to be familiar, I just can't place it. Does anyone know anything about him?

    There are Union and Confederate Memorial tartans, represent the American Civil War era, and now an Afghanistan Campaign tartan, which I was just reading about here, but no Viet Nam campaign, nor any World War memorial tartans that I can find. Perhaps vets ought to get together and design some. The way Viet Nam vets like to "show their colors" I'd think a VN tartan would sell like candy (not the word I originally used, but its a sensitive issue to some.)
