[Ansteorra] Children in the Sca

[Pat Mullins]

At Walmart in Bryan you can get a dog-tag stamped at a machine at the front of the store - I assume Bryan Walmart isn't the only place with one of these... Also, consider the pet store
(they call 'em dog-tags for a reason) or you could Google "military surplus austin" and find the 15 or so listings...

I think that this is a wonderful resource, but I'm not sure how I would find such a store. Academy Surplus used to be an army surplus store, but they are more of a sporting goods store now.

I don't have any children myself, but I have some fleece jackets that I periodically leave somewhere.:-(  And from the listings of lost and found from SCA events, it sounds like a lot of SCA folk could use something like this to mark various pieces of garb.

Even us sewing challenged should be able to sew such tags into our clothing.
