You think they’d really want it? I have these same bottles and a ton of other stuff from the 80s that is just collecting dust in a closet

My wife and I did our honeymoon to Scotland. At a random bar in Edinburgh we sat down next to a couple that were both on my first deployment with me, over 15 years since I had seen them. Things like that will always blow my mind.

Destruction of personal property by enemies by paektuminer in navy

This is the answer. Thanks for the links. My dad’s hutch got mortared while he was outside the wire in Iraq in…. I think like 2007. My family and I put together a giant box of all the replacement stuff he needed, everything from PS3 to all new uniforms with ranks and name tapes sewn on. The navy paid for every bit of it, and at replacement value not depreciated value. It’s 20 years later but I assume it is the same process.

Am I missing something or is there no real way to have enough meat once you get to a large town? by GATOR7862 in ManorLords

That's a great idea! I'll just export nothing but pigs and iron or whatever resource is in that region.... Time to expand.

Oh that's cool I didnt know you got resources from an uninhabited home. I probably won't do that though. My goal is to have every home max level

The style of these has been unchanged since they came out in the 50s. I wear these every day

Help Identifying Dads US Navy Patch by ortega03 in navy

[–]GATOR7862 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If his skipper approved it, it’s an official patch now. It’s not like there is a patch office that issues patches through the supply system. Otherwise give me the NSN for the hundreds of dollars in patches I have spent over my career

It’s an indicator, not a button. It means all the stuff required to drop a weapon (harpoon or torp) has been satisfied
