First Badge
It was another great day at the G749 farm with the Pooba himself coming out for Father's day 2017. No one will say who left the hat in his trailer but he wouldn't take it off. The Security animals are still on the job and they hired some kind of short legged dude that probably has an MV named after it.
Goose had it's first decal put on. The Mobile Command badge was given to me by the Reserves so today I watched a Veteran from 743 comms sqd. carefully measure and place it in the spot where it belongs.
The badge is a four-pointed cross symbol designed in 1965 on the creation of Force Mobile Command (FMC), a joint land and air formation; however, this formation has not existed since 1975, when Air Command was formed. Nonetheless, the original badge was retained when the name of FMC changed to Land Force Command. The badge was replaced with a new design in 1998.
Also had the opportunity to pull a compressor and donate it to a new M211 project that is trying to get out of the bush. The compressor is off the British M135 that had something go through the side of the block and left a hole big enough for four tea bags. More on the 211 project once we have good news so grab a cup and pour yourself a tea.
