G'day Folks

Those REMLR members that were at the Brisbane Auction on Wednesday would have seen the REMLR patch (as illustrated) on the pocket on my Bottle Green Polo Shirt the shirt was/is part of the original intended semi dress uniform that Ross C and a couple of us originals had thought up for use when attending functions, the rest of it was Jeans for recreational use (BBQ's & Roadruns) and with Ex-Army Polly Longs or Shorts for dress functions (parades, airshows, etc.) the shirt pocket patch can also be worn as a sleeve shoulder patch, on the right side so it can be seen through the vehicle window during Parades

The whole idea was to identify REMLR as a group, and to give a neat group dress appearance.


cheers

You could always sell the unwanted ones to someone else,

I like the idea but i dont want to look like a walt. Should we base it around a different colour shirt than olive drab. Say a kahki colour shirt. Still looks landrovery and uniform in appearance without looking like a wannabe.

My personal taste is to steer clear of anything that looks too military. I wore that once and with pride, but now it is a thing of my past, I am a civvy now(once again with pride).
I reckon we should have white shirts and light coloured dress trousers with oil stains indiscriminately spattered all over,(the acronym, IOSP) so that I could wear that, or my good clothes, whilst playing with the rovers and never get into trouble from Mrs ZD again!
Seriously though, my preference is for the larger patch although I dont mind either. What chance they were to be printed on a velcro base?
Regards
Glen

I agree with Glenn on this one - i still wear the green and i agree to move something towards what glenn outlined - velcro on the sleeves to place the patches on like uncle ho outlined.
Just a thought.

Cheers,
