For all you active duty, retired and veterans out there I wanted to share some info I just learned recently and have already used. You can now buy online from the military exchange. If you go to www.shopmyexchange.com and validate your service then register you can buy just about anything most of it with free shipping and best of all tax free. I recently bought a Mac book pro that was on sale and saved a ton on tax. The shipping was a little rough, took a little longer than Amazon, and the packing wasn't great but all in all it was worth it. My next purchase will probably be a new dishwasher!

That's pretty awesome, good looking out @BigN8 ! I'll check it out for sure.

For those of us north of the 49th parallel, we have Canex...they have a website too!

I'm pretty excited. I finally am having some stuff done with dad's flag. I found a pic with the relative ribbons and medals that I have. My brother got his Sgt major patch and the ribbons he has with those, also hos parade sword. I wanted the flag bad. I will post it as soon as the framer is done.

Just picked it up from the framers. He was a retired Sgt major. To make the shadow box I used all his patches and ribbons that he was when is platoon gave him the flag. If you zoom in to the pic you can see the flag in the platoon pic on the boat.
