Replica U-Boat Badges

Jimbuna · 08-16-08, 01:48 PM

I'm looking for a site that sells replica U-boat cap badges (tin/enamel) eg: Laughing Swordfish, Black Cat, Flotillas etc.

I used to have a site bookmarked from Germany and one from the UK but appear to have lost them.

Any info gratefully accepted

I don't have a clue Jim :p

But I need your help on installing SH-4 Gold on Vista.

I started a thread and saw yours . And thought this is a good way to get hold of you.

Can you help me on my thread ?

In the meantime I'll search for what you need.

Btw the cold ones are on me. :p

p.s. You need to keep better track of your toys.:rotfl:

I don't use Vista myself (XP Pro here at my end).

All I can suggest is what we at GWX advise with our mod.....Right-click the “.exe” file and select “Run as administrator”

Thx Jim

Tried that with no results.

You don't wanna know why I'm trying out Vista Pro. :p

I'm struggling to see any U-boat badges on there :hmm:

@STEED and conus00

That angelfire site was just what the doctor ordered, but the email contact addy is no longer valid

nikimcbee · 08-18-08, 01:07 PM

@JimmyB Are you still coming to the subsim party? I'll bring a bunch of decals.

How come your writing always shows up mostly invisible?

This is what I see:

nikimcbee · 08-18-08, 01:12 PM

hold a lighter to the monitor, that's how you see the invisible ink. (that's what my spy book said anyway)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invisible_ink

wiki says to place an iron on your monitor to see the font.
