Billhag Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Blaine Not quite sure what as happened for you to react this way, but I can only assume that it may have something to do with the bazooka that Mason as just put up for sale which I understand was earmarked for you originally If this is the case, then you’ve totally lost me on this one fella, as I've taken some personal interest in this and I know for a fact that Dave Hildreth the UKG’s GML said that he would approve this weapon no problem, with a suggestion that you may want to just blank off the tube centre at some point so that you can’t see straight threw it, but this would not affect its approval. Add to this, I know that Gary our currant XO had taken a special interest in your situation and told you that he would personally help in every way he could to get you out there trooping with a monster cannon. So as you can see, really not sure where you are coming from with this recent turn of events. . Yeah, elections are a month away. At least vote for those sympathetic to your cause and give the new leadership a chance. Paul Sorry mate, that doesn’t sound like a really great vote winner in my book,….“Vote for me and I’ll pass your costume of whether its correct or not†Whatever you may think of the UKG’s standpoint on costuming standards, the fact is the currant CO and XO, Alex and Gary have both taken the time to talk to Blaine and help and encourage him not to give up on his HWT and have offered him all the help and assistance they can give to get this costume pushed through. I’ll think you’ll also find that no matter who is serving on the Command staff of the UKG, past, present or future, that the ethos of up holding the highest standards where possible will always prevail no matter what. .

Daetrin[Admin] Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Sorry Billy if my remark came off that way, as that's not what I intended. Perhaps it would have been better for me to say: "You need to be willing to be part of the process and work for change from within. Complaining from the outside wins no favors, and you can be cutting of your nose to spite your face." As you know I'm a huge fan of Gary though I confess I don't know Alex at all, and give Gary my unquestioned support. Secondly and equally for the record, it is not nor should ever be a detachment's place to dictate constume standards nor be the trooping police. While I may not always agree with the UK GML's call, that is my POV strictly as a regular 501st member and is not meant to be a detachment point of view. My apologies to the members of the UKG if it appeared otherwise. Quote
