A British Tartan incorporating the colours and aspects of composition of the Flag of the United Kingdom (The Union Flag).
This tartan has been created for His Church Ltd to commemorate all airborne units, for both those who serve and have served. It incorporates specific colours that are intended to represent airborne forces from across the Commonwealth, friends of the commonwealth and across history respectively.
In 1725, General George Wade, the commander of British forces in North Britain authorised the formation of six Independent Companies of troops to police the Highlanders. The companies were known locally as the 'Black Watch', in 1739 they were consolidated to form the 43rd (later 42nd) Regiment at which time this tartan is thought to have been designed. The Cockburn Collection (1810-15) includes four specimens of the Government tartan labelled; ‘Campbell Argyll’, 'Grant', ‘Munro’ and ‘Sutherland’.
