Marines,

Well know that DCon is less than two months away and that we will soon be parading in the streets of Atlanta.

I am looking for suppor for the creation of a USCM flag to lead us in the parade. This flag will cost $170 and it's not feasible for me to do this project alone... I therefore ask for your help.

If you are interested in making this happen, I ask that you send whatever amount you wish to donate.

My Paypal address is cplbeaudoin@hotmail.com Please title your gift as USCM Flag Fund and provide your screen name as well.

Many thanks for your interest in this project.

VBR,

Is that US or Canadian?

Canadians are really hard to come by down here...

Thanks... if I start getting more that $170, I'll make partial refunds... or get a flagpole. What would you folks prefer?

Put them towards grenades to hand us at D*C?

Flagpole is a good idea too.

Go for the flagpole.

I will send a few bucks, but I think you should reconsider the flag and spend the money on a flag that says "ALIENS"
People need more context to understand who we are.

It makes sense Joe... but this would look as cool as Mobile Infantry guys with a flag that says "Starship Troopers".

With our bug Squashed Spider in the parade with us, I think people will know what we are.

Paypal sent. This is going to be great.

I would go for the flagpole rather than refunds. Could you let us know how close we get to adding the flagplole? Might see if I can throw in more if were close. I believe this will add a bit of style to our bunch of grunts...and bug.

And the jokes begin.... took longer than I expected really...

I'll send some paypal once my eBay auctions (my USCM fund) sell...
In case anyone wants to take a look at them... ah...

That crossed my mind. That's why I made sure to use the word flagpole every time.

No pole jokes please... My Polish wife will kick my Canadian ass.

Not even close to getting the flagpole yet, much like the flag... donations stand at $73.54 so far, we're still at $92.79 to go. Thanks to all who've sent their help to date... we've even had a gift from Chris aka FNG... God bless him.

Deadline to order to receive it on time is August 3rd, so dig deep marines.

BTW, I didn't ask previously, but if nobody objects, I will post the names of the donors and the amounts of the gifts on this thread.

I'd suggest leaving off the $$ each person donated if you were to make such a list, that might make some people uncomfortable.
