    Colonial Rank pins.

    Anyone know of a sourse to get replicas of the Colonial Rank insignia pins?

    Long before you and I were born, others beat these benches with their empty cups,
    To the night and its stars, to the here and now with who we are.

    Another sunrise with my sad captains, with who I choose to lose my mind,
    And if it's all we only pass this way but once, what a perfect waste of time.

      I meant the ones used in new Galactica. I've seen the old style ones at conventions and so forth.

            The mix of our Naval and Non-Naval(ground/Air) ranks is interesting. I wonder if they have the General rank for their ground forces?

              This brings up the question....how long has Adama and Tigh been in the military?? If they were around for the first Cylon war 40 years ago...just how old are they and what is their life spans??? Did he get out and then come back in?

                From the way Chief Tyrol stood up to Sgt. Hadrian, I'd say that a Chief Petty Officer outranked a Sgt. Anyone agree?

                  You don't always have to outrank the other person to blow them off.

                  It's not that rare to see an enlisted person completely blow off a Commissioned officer when they feel their are doing the right thing. When an NCO (Noncommissioned Officer E.G. Sergeants...) clearly has more experience and/or more authority in that specific area, officers often times take a back seat and take orders from the NCO.

                  Really, it comes down to whom is your boss. If my boss outranks yours and is willing to go to bat for me, then Sorry Sir, but you can go to hell. And that's why I love 1st Sergeants so much.

                  Why did I enlist during a time of war? Because I'm "Army Strong," not "Army Smart."

                  Forget this "Army of One" BS. I signed up to "Be all that I can be!"

                    Good point SGTLopez. It kind of just occured to me that the Chief just doesn't like people coming onto his Hanger Deck and throwing accusationas at his people.
