Regimental Tartan
The tartan originates from MacDonald's Accordish clan of MacDonald. When asked about implementing this throughout his regiment, MacDonald replied that it was to be "an honor to have to recognize my own heritage, clan and country. As for the lads themselves, they are considered a part of it and they are my family, and they'll be damn proud to wear it."
