This week, Matt has registered our tartan with the
Scottish Tartan Authority in Scotland. I sent out several emails to friends and friends of friends, explaining my idea. The response was amazing. Private Military Contractors from all over the world wanted in on the commissioning of this tartan. We all chipped in $57, and Matt went to work. Each member that participated will be able to receive a certificate from
Scotland showing the registration of the tartan and the tartan description will include all of our names. I am going to post a copy of the description and a swatch that will be similiar to what the tartan will look like. (computer imaging and actual colors will differ slightly) Full names were left out of this post, for operational security and safety. You do not have to be a private military contractor to buy the cloth or wear the kilt. Although I stated in the description the tartan is authorized for members, direct support and immediate family, I would in no way take offense to anyone that wanted to contact Matt, order their own yards and wear our colors proudly.(and also, As long as your not a white flag raising poof, convict, wannabe french guy, no cowards please.
I took this comment directly from the Site, 'PMCs from all over the World wanted in on the commissioning of this tartan' Okay so who are you all?? and I am particularly glad that they stipulated in their advert the exclusions to those entitled to wear this Tartan!! What is wrong with a 'white flag raising poof or convicts'? Some of my best friends are Flag raisers, not to mention convicts. I would have included 'Septics' who wannabe Jocks because their Great Grandmother on dad's side came from Edinboro!.
I bet a bottle of 'Buckie' that 'Genger' posing in the photo has not gone 'commando' otherwise he would not be smiling, if you have ever had midges in your nether regions you would know what I am talking about.
Note to all, real Jocks rairly wear tartan or kilts, why? there is no pocket for the Irn Bru bottle or another one for the Fish Supper. We need those 2 pockets to get home in a reasonably straight line after a night sampling Scottish Wine, preferably the Malt variety, as it helps us to balance the chips we have on both shoulders.
Still I suppose it helps support the Scottish economy having tartans and kilts produced here.....or are they made in China?
