This may not help, but here's my late little brothers rank as a kilt pin addendum on my Leatherneck tartan kilt. I was a cold warrior in the USMC back in 65-66, a real yawner then...but I wear the kilt in his honor - he did over ten years before he died and was a D.I. in Sandy Eggo. Of course its collar insignia relocated but its meaningful to me.

I currently have another one on order to use on my Dress Blue Marine Corps tartan kilt in the same manner, for the same reason - to honor my brother's service rather than follow any rules someone else made up.

"I'll have a kilt please, a nice hand sewn tartan, 16 ounce Strome. Oh, and a sporran on the side, with a strap please."
