So Im guessing the height/weight requirements dont apply to the NC. Looks like he should be wearing corporates to me. God, I hope that button doesnt pop off his mess dress. Somebody could lose an eye. Oh Im sorry, I just couldnt resist that one. Can anyone with more experience give me a read on the bling he is wearing, including his miniature medals?

Uh?  That really wasn' t the intent of this thread.  If it is going to be, let me delete the pics now.

I do hereby apologize for any offense taken by my comments. They were meant as a joke and it was apparently not funny. I am however still interested in knowing if anyone can tell from the small medals what bling hte MG is wearing. Im actually genuinely interested. Also, is the large badge worn on the bottom right of the Mess Dress the CAP National Seal or does it signify having achieved a certain grade, etc. Just curious. Thanks and again sorry for any offense I may have inadvertantly perpetrated.

He probably meant me.  I am often mistaken for being national commander.  My avatar's button could go at any minute...   >:D

Don't worry about it.  We can all have a good laugh now and then.  What would have been bad is if it would have become a series of posts taking "wacks" at the Major General, or for that matter any brother CAP Officer.  I think there are plenty of other places alread existant for that.

My choice to take the pics down, while sparked by your comments, was more a caution against others with less intergrity than yourself and myself.
