In legends Kal’s clones considered themselves Mandalorians but we haven’t really seen that in the clone wars, rebels or comics/novels so it’s not clear if there are still clones who feel the same way but since I loved the Republic Commando novels I totally see it as something important to some clones
Sadly, all the Mando lore around the Clones was thrown away in the series.
They're were no longer trained by Mandalorians Mercs (just regular rando mercs) and therefore no Mandalorian identity either.
So, even though the Clone Army had the same genes as Jango Fett, they got no Mandalorian indoctrination, and as we know, Mandalorian is a culture you inherit or are inducted to.
Same with Boba Fett, he doesn't consider himself to be a Mandalorian.
As a Mando lore fan, I would say we lost our fair share of lore, but we got the series, so it's fine, i guess?
Rebels did reintroduce an element of the mandalorian training. We know that some of the Clone Pilots were trained by Mandalorians. With the added element of hired Mercenaries training Clones, it wouldn't take much effort to add mandalorian mercenaries to the canon with the slate seen in the show
Oh right, the Journeyman Protectors, yes, yes. That would explain the Jaig Eyes o many clone helmets.
Fenn Rau saving the lives of Caleb and Master Billaba on Mygeeto with his Skull Squadron, I almost forget that but still don't have the depth of the republic commando novels had
