US Air Force Reserve Pipe Band Military Tartan Tartan Number: 2437. Earliest known date: 01/01/1988 One of a series of US Military tartans woven exclusively by the Strathmore Woollen Company of Forfar and adopted by the Band of the Air Force Reserve, Georgia, USA in the early 1990s. Although this has no official US Military recognition, it has been widely accepted by US servicemen and their families with Air Force connections as a representative design. Originally called 'Lady Jane of St Cirus', the design was shown to members of the pipe band who liked it sufficiently to adopt it (with Strathmore's agreement).
