Picked this up today, onlt ever seen them in books...the way I was able to get it is interesting.
I had to go to my psych today, His rooms are in a building where the supreme court has its offices, |I met a gentleman in the lift, He had a Order of Australia lapel pin and was very distinguished.After my appointment I was downstairs having a smoke, when this gentleman came out for the same reason...He saw one of my tattoos, a Large Heer eagle with a eidlewiess instead of a swastika, and my other tatto which includes the word Iraq....He commented that he was a collector, and was heading to the militaria store to pick up his lateste purchase, a chained SS dagger, he asked if I wanted to come along and see the store. Well the store was great, though a litle pricy on some items, and reasonable on others....I saw this in the display cabinet and was debating wether I should grab it....he came over and asked if i was going to buy it...I said, maybe, still thinking about it,,he then turned around and said "listen, I can see your a veteran, and I also noticed you went to the psychs floor, I dont want to patronise you by buying it for you, you were a soldier and you have your pride, how about I go halves with you, I just want to do something to show my appreciation for your service" and so I have it, thanks to this kind man....
I recently got a USB camera, so theres some up close shots too, in hand the colour on the back is silver....im still getting used the USB camera!!!

Wonderful story. Every veteran should be treated this way, with respect.
[COLOR="#EE82EE"]I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I'm out of control, and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.
