    I have some cheap yellow flashes, but I don't remember where I got them. I have also used gold colored flashes, and they work pretty well.

    Since I was Finance Corps, my color would be silvery grey.

    There's no "thinking" of it as Army Blue... it IS Army Blue, gents! (Army Blue Shade 150, to be precise.) Navy Blue is merely a poor substitute for Army Blue.

    I agree, Army Blue hose with Branch Flashes would be very interesting. (Yellow for Armor/Cavalry - The Combat Arm of Decision - Scouts Out! - being the preferred, but alas, we can't all be mounted warriors, now can we?)


    I do like the loden hose I wear with mine currently - but they'd not be quite as nice at a Dining In - or a Dining Out - as the Army Blue.

    Try Matt Newsome -- I believe the museum gift shop sells yellow flashes.
