    Recut/tailoring my old RAF SD/No.1 Jacket into a civvy jacket

    Still serving, but switched to the Royal Canadian Navy uniform in 2013. Keep all my service dress uniforms, even still have my RCAF mess dress. The RCAF did change back to the traditional silver blue insignia in 2015, but too late for me:

    Recut/tailoring my old RAF SD/No.1 Jacket into a civvy jacket

    I would suggest removing the squadron leader rank insignia at a minimum. To be safe, all insignia. But as this was your uniform, if it were me, I would leave it as is.

    I find Crystal Skull works best from a concrete bunker about 600 nautical miles away in a power outage with no means of projecting it.

    Dear lord, while I would choose a different beer myself, that sounds glorious!

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    As a bit of a flag waver I do not see waving as a problem, and recognizing what the first B in BBC stands for means anything "beeb" derived does the same thing. I wish Canada had anything approaching the volume of UK production so we could create a service like that. Whatevers.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    A&E for us was like PBS and the Ontario public network TVO in being a source of great British shows, like The Chinese Detective. History had great second world War series. Now ithey are Storage Wars and the Oak Island thing.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    That is awesome. I need in fact to replace Sharle's Rifles as I lost the disk. I have the slip case, so clearly I used it somewhere, likely military duty, and left it behind. It seems these are no longer produced, at least in the North American format, so even used copies are expensive.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    He carried a Baker rifle as did all the Chosen Men. Much longer range than the Brown Bess. No idea what is actually used on screen, but the books and the story are clear - he is a rifleman, not a musketeer.
