[Ansteorra-archery] Greetings....I need some help from someone in the Military

[Lawrence]

I understand what you mean guys and was thinking about that as well. I sure
dont want to offend anyone who has served our Country! I was asked to see if
i could find some of these and am thinking i will look at the different
sites that do casting for something similar.
 
Thanks!
Lance

I am with Karl.  I think is is somewhat disrespectful to wear a badge worn
by special forces officers, and intended for special forces officers, unless
you have been a special forces officer.

To me its kinda like if you went around wearing a White Bracer on your arm
and you weren't a member of the Order.  I would be annoyed at someone who
did that.

Or better yet, if you decided to wear a Red Bracer, a Red Belt, and a Red
Scarf.   Those items aren't "official" or protected by our kingdom law.  We
simply customarily use them to mean something that is very special to those
that wear them.  We honor those people who very carefully consider who they
will give those customary insignia to by keeping to those customs and
traditions and allowing them to remain special.  Why not honor those who
have served our country in the special forces similarly?

Regards,

I am not sure how picky they are, but when I was active, if you wanted some
of the special stuff, you had to prove you deserved it.  Unless you know any
officers in the special forces, most Joe's wont be able to buy it in a PX.

 
And to tell the truth, why not find an artist who can make stuff like that?
Its kinda disrespectful to have those things if you havent earned them.

Hi all, we are looking for the brass crossed arrows pin that is used by the
Army Special Forces Officer. Here is a link to the site I found that has the
cheapest price and quantity ....
<http://www.priorservice.com/arspfoofba.html>

The price at $5.00 a pin isnt bad but I thought maybe one of our members who
Serve could check their local base and see if they could be bought at a
lower price.
If someone finds anything please e-mail me at huntsmanlance at cox.net 
Thanks! 
Lance
