| My latest uni, an impulse buy from Facebook!  It's the Timeless 'Marine Cadet' but Nate informs me there's no such thing and it's actually the "The President's Own" United States Marine Band' uniform. I think he should have come with a trumpet rather than a white Garand!  _________________  Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. | |

| It's a premium uniform for sure!!! I think it would look much better on a painthead   _________________ clivvers - saviour of the huMAM race @ MAMageddon 2009 - 2099 @ clivvers MAM Nation: | |

Thanks for all the comments!
It would look better on a PH and that's no doubt where it will end up but I had this fuzzy handy at the time!

It's a genuine, authentic, officially licenced, GI.JOE product... It's one of Hasbro's wonderful inventions _________________ clivvers - saviour of the huMAM race @ MAMageddon 2009 - 2099 @ clivvers MAM Nation: | |

| Great looking figure! Here is an illustration and picture of the unit in question so you don't think I was pulling your leg. The white trouser/skirt is for summer, blue for winter.   Performing in tribute to probably the most important composer of the last half-century: (From 4:25 onwards) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYiikAsFXKMGreat figure! -Nate | |

Great background info Nate. See what an informative and educational hobby VAM is!
The band leader in the bearskin looks amazing. Weird seeing him in something so quintessentially British!
