Gov't Tartan Question

[OC Richard]

Yes, it is made under MOD Contract. Marton Mills currently weave this for the MOD.

Thanks!

It's heartening to hear that the cloth is UK-made.

I seem to recall speculation, when the RRS was being created, that they might use lower-quality foreign-made cloth.

I'm trying to wrap my mind around the size of the initial order of cloth for seven battalions.

I suppose that would be the largest single order of kilting tartan since 1914.
