That's the wrong belt... You need to get the SNCO buckle.
You feel that civilians should be wearing the Eagle/Globe/Anchor of the USMC on a costume?
Really?
Aaron- you pm'ed me not too long ago about the Dress Blues uniform and I took the time to explain all the
changes we made for the uniform SO IT DOESN'T EXACTLY look like a REAL USMC uniform.
That why we're wearing THE WRONG BELT, THE WRONG BUTTONS AND THE WRONG FRIKKIN' PANTS!
Aside from respecting the uniform of the United States Marine Corps (by NOT wearing any actual USMC insignia), there are also laws in the US against wearing a military uniform in public (reenactors and entertainment productions being exceptions). So we felt we had to change things on purpose to abide by the law.
I also gave you a link in that pm to the Dress Blues thread (that directly linked you to my latest post so you wouldn't have to read through 36 pages first).
Here it is again for you.
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2518&hilit=dress+blues&start=885So I'm guessing (actually I'm hoping believe it or not) that you didn't read any of it. Because if you DID read it, we have a BIG problem here because you DON'T GET IT.
Maybe you do need to read that thread from the first page to the last!
We're not the Marine Corps here! How many times do I and now several others have to say it?
You're also not going to change anything around here. Suggestions are one thing, but flat out telling someone that something is wrong with their uniform
when you don't know what you're talking about is not only rude, but makes you look like an ass!
Rex- my apologies for this.
