 A while ago I thought I saw something about FSO patch's ?  I think medal/ribbons  should be left up to the squads to take care of.   :salute the JG II fellars really got their medals/ribbon stuff tight  :salute

Thanks haase.  :salute

Alot of work went into our programs.  Mostly designed by 'Hammer' and 'Hobo'.  Both US Vets.  Also Hammer spent many hours removing the political symbology from our Awards, and created some really beautiful medals and ribbons for us.  The guys enjoy the programs, which we use not as a chain of kommand but rather as recognition, and immersion aides.  Hobo has done, imo, a bang up job on our website, and the tracking and updating that goes on to maintain these programs real time, is considerable.

It's not a bad idea for a Squad to do something of this sort "In House".  That is something they should discuss amongst their squad mates. 

But to ask HTC or the CM's to implement it?  Naw, I don't think that'd be very smart, for reasons already stated way above.

We started doing Campaign Ribbons for the FSOs..
