    Peace Corps Tartan?

    Hi! It's been a while!

    I'm wondering if there is a Peace Corps tartan. I can't find any evidence that there is.

    Cheers!

    Well, I'd like to know that too; Peace Corp 78-79, El Salvador, Central America.

    Great idea...where are our tartan inventors?

    Meantime, how about a Leatherneck tartan with a peace sign kilt pin?

    My summer was fun, mainly worked a couple of jobs and hung out with friends. Productive! Anyway, I posted a new person thread, so as to avoid being all sorts of off-topic in this one.

    Anyway yeah, I am very seriously considering joining the peace corps a couple years from now, and the thought struck me: The USMC has basically the prettiest tartan ever, and the air force, navy, and coast guard all have tartans, does the Peace Corps have its own tartan?

    Anyway, if it doesn't and I do join, I'll join in two years, and be back two years after that, so there best be a Peace Corps tartan in 4 years, or else.

    Ron, you never know they do have short programs for returned volunteers of 1-2 months duration. I have long thought I might do that once I get closer to retirement age. We can both put in for Skye, or maybe Cape Breton.
