That's one of my pet peeves too. I've got a guy at work who keeps talking about his pal who he says is a "former Marine." He won't listen to me because he says his pal, calls himself the same.

If you did not serve in the military and feel uncomfortable in one of these tartans. Consider wearing the kilt and use a yellow ribbon as the kilt pin. This would be an clear indication of your support of those service members who's tartan you are wearing.
I spent time in the Army artillery in the northern AO in South Vietnam. I had a lot of faith in the Army units in the area that provided support to us, but, I felt very comforted by the fact that this was the Marine AO. The Marines knew that we would do anything to provide them fire support when and where they needed it. I can see the Marine tartan on my list of must haves.
Thanks to all you have served.
