| U.S. Navy Tartan (EDZELL) |
WISCONSINPIPER.COM
As a former Officer in the US Navy, I proudly wear the United
States Navy (Edzell) Tartan.
This exclusive tartan was unveiled at the 25th Anniversary
Celebration of NSGA Edzell's establishment on July 6th, 1985.
The 100% wool cloth is made up of squares (called sets), five
and a half inches by five and a quarter inches in size, with each
set repeating the pattern and colours of the plaid.
The dark blue colour was chosen to represent the U.S. Navy,
light blue for the Air Force, red stripes for the Marine Corps and
Army, and white for the waves of the ocean.
The tartan's pattern, colours and set are one of more than 1600
registered tartans in Edinburgh. The Strathmore Company
holds the registration, which is similar to a patent, and they are
the only company who can now produce the cloth.
