I'm building a board with 1/350 scale models of the boats I served on. Thanks to Ron's generosity I have now only one 'rocker' (ID shoulder tab) to get to have one for each of the boats. However, I am missing one for USS Dace {the 607, not the WWII boat}. Does anyone know of a reputable place I might order one made. Just need one. Found a place I could order them but a 50 run minimum and that is a bit many. Thanks Jim Christley

If all else fails, buying a U.S.S. Dale one for $10 and a bit of sewing skills and jury rigging might work. http://www.ebay.com/itm/193392542964" rel="nofollow - https://www.ebay.com/itm/193392542964 ------------- SS484 SS426 SSBN618 Joined this BBS: May 25 2007 Website http://www.usstusk.com" rel="nofollow - USS Tusk SS 426 |

That looks like the other ones I have. Not as wide as some of the more modern ones. I found a place to order one made for $5.00. https://www.rwne.com/uim.html Might just get one from here. Most they can do is rip you off for $5.00 and cause you to have to change charge cards. Thanks ------------- Be Well Oldsubs |

Not if you use PayPal. They won't reveal your credit card information to the seller and I would guess their security is pretty good, as well. ------------- It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues.~Abe Lincoln SS-393, SSBN-610(B), SSBN-624(G), SSN-591 USSVI Life Member; Holland Club; Plank Owner, Smoky Mtn.

The quantity is the killer on rockers. We do Plank Owner and DILLIGAF and that is all. We just one for a guy but the cost was $4 each and 25 minimum. ------------- My heroes wear dog tags, not shoulder pads |
