238 Years Ago

As you can see Swag is beginning to arrive.

The oval shoulder patch is 4.5" x 3.5", Velcro backing.  That's III Society gear.

You'll see 3 lapel pins.  The polished brass and the brass/black pins are also exclusively for III Society members.  There's also an all-black that we'll sell through IIIGear for the TOC.

The new III patches on the left are 3x2 - perfect for your tactical caps,  The sand/coyote is the first non-OD I've purchased for IIIGear.  So, you've probably guessed we'll be stocking several items in sand from Condor.  I personally have 2 Condor 163 sling bags used as Go Bags in sand, and now a few tactical caps.

Why?  Why worry about IIIGear and a new III organization?  Why bother with a lapel pin or patch?

238 years ago Thomas Jefferson and a few others sat in a room and drafted what would become our most important Founding Document. 

When in the course of Human events...

We hold these truths to be self-evident...

...unalienable...

...Life, Liberty, pursuit of Happiness...

238 years later, we find ourselves in much the same circumstances.  In many ways, worse.

We hear the words morale and cohesion often.  They are important.  How many of you feel alone, as if nobody near you shares your values and ideals? 

That leads us to IFF - Identify, Friend or Foe.  Marking your gear, your outfit, your vehicle with a simple Roman Numeral III serves as a beacon to those of us who are your allies.  It tells us in an instant which side we take in a scrum.

And there is a scrum headed our way.

This is a holiday weekend for a serious reason.  For you and me it is an opportunity to become more prepared.
