Urgent help from military brothers

[arrogcow]

OK, I've been putting it off, but with my Army tartan soon on the way, I need help. I can't find my old unit crests (they're in a box somewhere), and I really want a 9th Cav crest to wear as a kilt pin. I've already spoken to US CAV and they don't have the 9th for some reason (actually since the 9th is split up and attached all over it is not that surprising). Brigade Quartermaster also doesn't sell crests.

So anyone with access to a base PX, that would be willing to look for me would be greatly appreciated. If possible I'd also like an officers Cavalry branch pin (brass not subdued) to put on my nightstalker sporran.

If anyone can help, please let me know.

Thanks
Adam

You might try Ranger Joes

The quick search I did did not show the 9th Cav, but you might call them and see if they have a lead.

Just remember INFANTRY leads the way!!

INFANTRY? Isn't that the name of a crunchy cereal Scouts Out!

Just playing also MtnMan

For those who may not know, "Crunchies" is an affectionate term used by mounted cavalry for our "dismounted" brothers.

Ranger Joe's no go.

Miluniforn - got it

yes but i have also been in the mounted world, i was in a mechanized unit.

Scouts out? thats what i say when i well ya know, drop the scouts at the pool as it were. ;) lol

my unit was actually reflagged to a scout unit so we got a lot of scouts incorperated in to us after we get back from Iraq, then all of us real soldiers got moved to other bats. i got moved to the 1/15INF Audi Murphys old unit.

How i miss the fun jabs we used to take at each other...

Yea tho I fly over the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil.
For mine helicopter rules the skies and the valleys below.
For I reach out and touch mine enemies from afar and in in the heart of the darkness.
For I shun the filth and toil of the earth below.
For I alone on the field of battle am secure in the knowledge that hot chow and clean sheets await my weary soul back at the FAARP.
Mine enemies fear the righteous sound of the halo of rotor blades above mine head and mine mustachioed raiment gleams down upon those friendlies below.
For I alone am secure in the knowledge that all others must look skyward to gaze upon my countenance.

Guys, please take this in the vein of humor it was intended. I make no attacks on anyone. I am not belittling anyones beliefs. honestly, it is not religious, it's just the way soldiers use among themselves to relieve the pain.
