Did he complain?

Nah, I’m talking about the sub chasers.

Did he complain?

Only about the food. Then when he finally got to England, he met my mother, so I can't bitch too much either.

Oh. I thought those guys just went out fishing to supply the Army's mess halls....

You must mean the guys who navigated so poorly that they missed England entirely and dumped my dad's unit in Iceland for a year and a half before D-Day.

And that was using commercial oceanliners!

Are you sure that wasn't intentional?

Hi I would like to order the following buttons:

US NAVY x 2
US COAST GUARD x 2
US SPACE FORCE x 2
US AIR FORCE x 2
US ARMY x 3
US MARINES x 2

Thanks

Edited to add a 3rd Army button for my cousin. He was an Airborne Ranger and still serving with the Guard.

I was curious if you were half Icelandic. But half Brit works. Your father must have been a smooth operator.

US ARMY x 1

US ARMY x 1

US ARMY x6

The soldier in me will take care of the Army orders from @CraigT78 , @Seeking Alpha Social Club and @pltrgyst. I give Craig and Alpha crap from time to time for being Navy veterans, so this is good compensation for them having to wear the ugliest uniforms on the planet. By the way: GO ARMY! BEAT NAVY!

As for Mr. Pltrgyst, I seem to recall he served with the mighty 173rd Airborne Brigade. The former Screaming Eagle in me is compelled to take care of a Sky Soldier.

Lastly, @detroitdad didn't order an Army button, but he was in Panama a year before I arrived in 1989 for "Operation Just Cause." Holy hell, that makes me old as dirt. Suck it up, Mr. Detroit because you're getting an Army button.

So, put me down for paying for U.S. ARMY x 12:

• Three for me
• One for Mr. Craig
• One for Mr. Alpha
• Six for Mr. Pltrgyst
• One for DetroitDad

"THIS WE"LL DEFEND!"

Thank you. I'll use it with honor.

Well the Navy Man in me is compelled to have @Seeking Alpha Social Club cover the cost for all mine! US Navy- "because buddy is only half a word!"

Go Navy! Beat Army!

Let's all appreciate and applaud @Chawks45 for writing this lengthy post. No one knows how many boxes of crayons he went through drafting it.

Thank you sir! I appreciate you.

 

[Chawks45]

No one knows how many boxes of crayons he went through drafting it.

It was all on PowerPoint!

 

[pltrgyst]

Totally unnecessary, but awfully nice of you, @Chawks45!

Those Army buttons (less one, of course) are going to Army retirees in my tennis club. Good guys, all...

 

[pltrgyst]

Are you sure that wasn't intentional?

Might well have been -- he was a Signal Corps company commander, and they spent that time installing most of the earliest communications lines in Iceland.

 

[detroitdad]

Thanks to whomever purchased the 5 USAF DB's for me. That was awfully nice of you. Feel free to post, or PM me if you would like.

 

[warma]

I’m willing to accept donations… either a USCG button or a Windwalker grail set.

Hi Guys I'll be compiling the numbers soon and then start group order PMs. I'll be breaking down all the orders into bunching people into PM Groups.

 

[Nuhockey]

Hi Everyone, Your Button Totals are below please post if something is off and I will fix it ASAP. I will then start collecting with your $$ totals via Group PMS. I saw posts from @grebe and @Bluegrass Poker, but no order numbers. If either of you want in let me know ASAP.

Hi @grebe did you post your totals in the Idea Thread? I didn't see you place nay number in this order thread? Let me know. Thanks.

 

[Littleluck55]

Oops. I thought I requested, but I did not. I need x2 Navy buttons. Everything else correct for a total of 8 buttons.

Thanks again

Updated. Thanks.

 

[grebe]

Sorry, I thought I did. I'll take two navy buttons

 

[CRAW]

Thx for the efforts @Nuhockey!

 

[Nuhockey]

Hi everyone. Thanks to everyone who has paid so far. We are looking good as I have 28 of 35 Payments to me already from me just posting the totals last night. It looks like with a few more payments I can get the order in before the end of the week and they can begin production next week..
