Hello, here are some pics of me in various types of gear:

I meant to reply to Tommy Gun sooner, but are you sure he isn't asking about a regimental flash?

 

[Tommy Gun Jack]

Baggers: I am, in fact talking about a regimental flash. Do you know nay good threads or links?

Oldsarge: Sorry for the confusion. That was my mistake.

Hi

An old Military collecting site I was a member of (before it went under) had a lot of that kind of data. British? Try looking up "Coldsteam guards regimental insignia".

These guys have a LOT of stuff, but I haven't seen anything that is definitely for a pith helmet.

Does anybody have the Tag Safari Bengal Pith Helmet, that they could show me pictures of the inside? As soon as I can, I will post a picture of the Flash I was curious about.

Okay fellow adventurers I need your assistance. I am looking for some new trousers. I thought that I had found exactly what I was looking for in some old Banana Republic pants, but alas they turned out to be the dreaded "low rise" hip-hugging, waste of fabric, pants. Aside from the fit, they are just want I am looking for. So here's my criteria:
100% cotton twill, khaki and/or olive color
Button close, zip fly
Slant front pockets
Flapped patch pockets in rear
If anybody knows where to purchase said trousers, please let me know (and L.L. Bean is out of the ol' Cramerton twills)
Here are some pics of what I am searching for

I wonder if Mike knows that his pictures have been replaced?

He might look stunning in those errrrr... southern climate garments...

That is adventuring gear for a different type of adventure....... cue the music 'A Walk On The Wild Side'







I am just poking fun at the post, not the poster.

My Dad used to tell me "No te cases con una rubia porque se te quema en el sol" Don't marry a blond woman, she'll burn up in the sun.
So I married a Red Head.
