Bahamut0013's talk page This is Bahamut0013's talk page, where you can send messages and comments to Bahamut0013. Please sign and date your posts by typing four tildes (~~~~). New to Wikipedia? Welcome! Ask questions, get answers. Put new text under old text, but please don't create a new section if a relevant one already exists, even if there is older discussion below. Click here to start a new section. Please do not archive my talk pages, even if there seems to be an excessive number. I will manually archive them when I feel I no longer need them. Similarly, please do not refactor this page, I am very meticulous about my arrangement and will do my own refactoring (shifting discussion and headers as necessary). I will attempt to respond to your talk page whenever possible. If you prefer to respond to me on your own talk page, please leave me a note telling to to refer there, such as Template:Talkback. Otherwise, I might not check your talk page for a while. If a third party gets involved, it will go to hell quickly and get confusing, so we might want to try a centralized discussion page. If you're here to be uncivil or a dick, you may as well not bother. I won't be able to respect a message that insults me, so don't waste your time. If you are unhappy with something I've done, then address your concerns to me in a manner that begets mutual respect; you're more likely to get what you want if you don't treat me like your enemy. I do not remove personal attacks directed at me from this page. If you spot any, please do not remove them, as they speak more against the attacker than against me. Be polite Assume good faith No personal attacks Be welcoming Archives: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 File:Kid(8bit).jpg listed for deletion An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:Kid(8bit).jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion.

Making Ribbons Hi, I see that Wikipedia's got just about everything related to military decorations and I found your userpage. I'm trying to design some ribbons for this online game I'm playing and I'm trying to see what editors here are using for the overlaying horizontal lines to imitate the cloth stitching of the ribbons. Is there a simple file on wikipedia I could just overlay as a new layer? Thanks a lot for your help! Great work with Ribbon Workshop by the way! - Jameson L.

I removed the notice on the page about Steve Brozak because I added citations all throughout the article. I edited the page based on how I saw other bios. Could you please recommend what else you feel needs to be done to fix up the page? Thank you for your help.

The reference for that NATO medal is here: http://www.act.nato.int/news.asp?storyid=430 (see photo gallery) Photo: http://www.act.nato.int/media/5-multimedia/photos/2009/090909CoC/5-350hr.jpg On the photo, you can even see that he's got the NATO Meritorious Service Medal... claudevsq (talk) 18:14, 27 September 2009 (UTC) Thanks for your message, the ribbon workshop is great. Sorry if I messed something up, greetings, claudevsq (talk) 13:17, 28 September 2009 (UTC) I have some questions, please: On the photo, I saw that Mattis has got a clasp on his NATO Meritorious Service Medal, and one on his NATO ISAF Medal. This is written on the NATO Medal page: "All medals except the Macedonian NATO Medal have corresponding campaign clasps, however some militaries (such as the United States) prohibit the wearing of the medal with a clasp and instead authorize service stars." So, shouldn't we add a service star to his non-article 5 medal ribbon? Plus, on one photo, you can clearly see that he's got at least one service star on his Iraq Campaign Medal. And, on the official photo, on the lower left (brightness to MAX), you can see he's wearing the JFCOM logo... At least, we know now that he hasn't got an order of the french legion of honor. As for Petraeus, do you know a reference where he received his Tong-Il Medal? Plus, on Stéphane Abrial's page, I couldn't identify two ribbons, just like on George W. Casey, Jr.'s page... Thanks for some correcting, if you have got the time... Plus, did you see www.socom.mil? They have completely redesigned it... I couldn't find an official A-class uniform photo of commander Eric T. Olson, maybe you can... He's the only one where we only have an "old" photo... Greetings, claudevsq (talk) 10:07, 1 October 2009 (UTC) Thanks alot for your answers!!! claudevsq (talk) 09:19, 2 October 2009 (UTC) Here's a link to a photo where you can see all of George W. Casey, Jr.'s decorations very well: http://www.army.mil/-images/2009/10/06/52432/army.mil-52432-2009-10-07-061000.jpg Greetings, claudevsq (talk) 18:05, 7 October 2009 (UTC) The Military history WikiProject Newsletter : XLIII (September 2009) The September 2009 issue of the Military history WikiProject newsletter has been published.

I'll elaborate much I can...tell me what you come up with and I'll send suggestions if you'd like. The STA and Scout Sniper Platoons are indeed separate platoons and assets...but they both originated from the same school. Similar trade in skills, but the commanders use these separately for different missions, accordingly. And not sure why there are 'two' articles about Marine snipers....the Scout Sniper and Scout Sniper Platoon? Two different articles incorporating information about the same exact unit. However, the Scout (Tank) Company are a WWII-era unit that dissolved momentarily after the end of the war—this has to be separated because three to four different Marine units originate from this 'one' asset that used to exist—it must be treated as a History reference for the other articles that pertain to it. Scout (Tank) Company of WWII era is the patron of all these assets...Division Recon Co/Bn, S/S and STA Plts, and the LAR bn. RekonDog (talk) 01:00, 8 October 2009 (UTC) Yes, sorry, I seem to over-exert my explanations; Scout Sniper Platoon should be merged into Scout Sniper. And, the Scout Sniper School is a school that the STA Platoon also share, alongside with the Scout Sniper Platoon. I was wondering if it should be a separate article or not? RekonDog (talk) 00:51, 11 October 2009 (UTC) I hadn't tried the merging thing before...although I'll like to learn and attempt it. Sometime this week, I'll see what I can do.
