...sadly, the only knitting I've ever done is of my brow when I see words like "purling"...**sigh** I blame an education system that REQUIRED girls to learn sewing. I naturally, rebelled.
Perhaps I could haunt the local thrift shops for loosely-knit sweaters? By removing the arms (sleeves) (which I think I can do)...use of strategic dye, etc. it could work..couldn't it?

Ok, if we decide to go with the 76th Brigade, is there anyone in here with image skills? I mean to create a badge for us to wear on our 'uniforms'...something that can be easily made into a patch. I know nothing of this kind of thing, and would not even know how to go about getting them made...

...hmmmm...for a patch, how about if we use the chinese symbol for "brigade" with the number 76? then, since we're (I guess) going to try and get those triangle patches - perhaps it could be a simple square or rectangle?

I'm working on one. Unfortunately there is not Chinese word for Brigade, closest I've found is the simple form of Battalion. I'll post a pic when I'm done.

Every nerd who's ever nerded his way through nerdville wants to be a sniper.

But if you're gonna do it, for Lord's sake, do it right and get someone to be your spotter.
Concerning ranks: I've seen them use both Navy and Army ranks in the show. Actually, I believe the head agent in "The Message" wore the rank of Colonel. I'm not sure about how the Alliance's military is set up, but that might suggest that their military is interchangeable with their law enforcement. Anyways, anyone who wants a quick run down of rank just use wikipedia. Navy and Army are what you'll most likely be using, since i don't ever recall the mention of a Gunnery Sargeant or an Airman in the show or the movie.
EDIT: Also, I'm going to suggest that you pre-determine units beneath the Brigade level. I have several ideas of my own, but you're going to have to work around the fact that we really will not have a Brigade sized unit, so we may just have to skip a few levels like Battalion and Company. Technically speaking, before a Brigade that was short staffed was officially downsized, this would just mean that 1st Platoon, A-CO 1/76th could exist, just in the size of a squad or a small Platoon. Anyways, like I said, I have ideas of my own, but I'd at least urge someone (Tristan?) to make something official on the matter.

Place my body on a ship and burn it on the sea,
Let my spirit rise, Valkyries carry me.
Take me to Valhalla where my brothers wait for me.
Fires burn into the sky, my spirit will never die.
