[QUOTE="TomPC, post: 54658, member: 36873"] It depends what sort of event it is, but on a 'family day' or parade of remembrance I think you should wear it confidently and proudly. Club, school and association ties were first introduced so members could recognise each other and see they had something in common. I have several times in my life recognised my old regimental or school tie and started up a conversation with a complete stranger. It would be wrong of you to wear it pretending you were in the SAS (which I know is not your intention) but it may well mean that someone connected with the regiment starts up a conversation with you in which you can confidently and proudly explain whose it is and why you're wearing it. You might find the other person knew of him and have a great conversation leading to pints and war stories... [/QUOTE]
