joelyne, catching up on my to do list and one of those things is welcome you to the nation.. the sites fun and has many interesting discussions.. it's nice seeing how other departments and countries work, but i love seeing all the different styled apparatus used all over the world.. word to the wise, if you wanna trade patches be careful.. there are a few people here looking to get one and not reciprocate.. i will not mail anything till i have something in hand, but you do what you want.. my goal now is not to get a patch, i do not collect them.. but rather, being a brother watch your back and warn you like we should all do for each other, it's what the brotherhood is all about.. if you wanna add me as a friend, great .. if not that too is OK, my message is intended to welcome you to the group..
be safe and god bless..
