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

arrows in saltier. Not a specific badge or emblem that is specific to
Special Forces. Yes they are used by the Special Forces, but they have
been in use for centuries before that for other purposes as well. He was
just trying to find a ready source of the emblem.<BR><BR>Now if he wanted wear
the emblem on an Army uniform, that would be completely different. Then
again, it wouldn't matter if you wore a white or red belt outside of an SCA
setting either. Context is important.<BR><BR>To sum up, I don't see any
disrespect using something as generic as two crossed arrows outside of a US
Military setting.<BR><BR>Baron Donnchadh<BR><BR><BR>Eadric Anstapa wrote:

wearing a White Bracer on your arm and you weren't a member of the

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?<BR><BR>Regards,<BR><BR>-EA<BR><BR>Chuck Kaun wrote:

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. <BR> <BR>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.<BR> <BR>Karl
