Question on pants.

In "Heart of Gold" I am certain that Reynold's pants have belt loops. In our recommendations, we definitely have chosen the mid-19th versions that do NOT. I'm good either way, but was wondering if I am the only one who saw this.

ALso, although I coined it, "The Spirit of 76" is not as good a battalion motto as "Hold the Line". THe latter is an action with unambiguous meaning - mine is highly allusive and clever, but I'd think with Idependents directness is a value.

In Service,

Q

"The Spirit of '76"

Evening, 76th!
Sister, we will be waiting on the photos!
As far as shipping the rest to me, please email me at tristan71@cableone.net when you get a chance.

Quandom, I would have to watch the episode again...but I can tell you for certainty that the three types of pants we are accepting for the 76th are the ones listed in the first post on this thread. They are all the relatively high-waisted, button-front type without belt loops. They are all held up by suspenders.
Hope that answers that question?

As for the motto, I am still waiting on the submissions on the Proboard to be finished...there are quite a number of shiny ones already!

Oddly enough, CO, I received my set today as well. I'm at work, so no camera for me -- but the star is blue, and the patches are *shiny*.

In case I don't get another chance, Happy Holidays to Browncoats everywhere and especially members of the 76th Battalion!

I aim to misbehave!
