    Here's how it might look on a t-shirt.

    "of the war" seems to break the cadence - my perception.

    Default It's Not the Size That Counts ...

    is probably copyrighted, since it's the title of a 1974 movie. Sounds like a wacky movie from the Wiki.

    I took copyright in 1967, so my opinion in that legal area is worthless.

    I was thinking about making up a t-shirt and bumper sticker for myself.
    Support our troops!

    Replace the M855 5.56mm Ball cartridge with the MK 262 Mod 0, 5.56mm 77 Grain LR!

    Maybe I could get that printed onto a magnetic ribbon, as well (stopping power awareness).

    jmm99,Have Gun Will Travel isn't. It was one of the most famous cases there was....they forgot to copywrite it so all these imatation cards started showing up in schools around 1966 or 1967 I am the proud owner of one. carried it all during my time in the 82nd. I don't know how it was finally resolved maybe you can find out?

    I agree. It needs to be streamlined a bit.

    I like this variation...a lot. And I think setting up a run of tees (assuming one of the mods might be able to take on the task of supervising the effort) would be easier perhaps than getting a run of coins done.

    Next best quote in my mind would be the one we had proposed and agreed upon for that challenge coin idea. I seem to have misplaced the thread and am not sure what we picked.

    Default We're forgetting the other side of the equation...

    "But suppose everybody on our side felt that way?"

    Hi JC,
    The front was boots on the ground,eyes on the people,mind on the mission. This was going to be translated into Latin. The back was going to be History is our teacher....also in Latin if I remember correctly.

    Idea, if we do t-shirts and hats and coffee cups we could do them all. I like that marine combatives motto One Mind Any Weapon.

    If you set up an account on CafePress.com you can make an infinite number of combinations of mottos, crests, and graphics on t-shirts, hoodies, sweaters, mousepads, hats, coffee cups, etc. etc. There is no charge to set up a product and I believe you can get a small royalty if other people purchase an item with your artwork/design.
