    The same can be said for those of us that wear the Gordon Highlander tartan, I was never a member of any Scottish regiment and yet I wear the WPG Gordon Highlander with pride because it represents my ancestry and the people who served as I have chosen to serve my country.

    I wear the desert MARPAT Sports Kilt with the Marine Corps Marathon patch as my weighted kilt pin because that was my first marathon (4:05:20) and I make no claim to being a Marine, it is worn with pride.



    Finally, I really like the Maple Leaf tartan but I am not Canadian but I would wear it for its beauty and to inform those that ask its origin etc...

    So, I say do it, get the Leatherneck Tartan and wear it with pride.

    Dude I'm so Canadian it oozes, I'll gladly spare a bit so that you can wear the Maple Leaf without concern. Find Canada on a map (hint; it America's attic) so much the better.

    Col, I recall the designer of the Leatherneck tartan is/was a member here at XMarks.
