It's always exciting to meet up with a fellow Tnetter. It's great to talk to someone who "speaks the same language". :)

Nice pics! :thumbsup:

Great job my man. I love the cuff button. For some reason my club never finds military or militia buttons. Through our research I know for a fact that they were there. :icon_scratch: :thumbsup:
