The #1 Online Comunity for Airsoft Teams
Rank Graphics
Before I suggest, I should compliment, thanks for the work on the rank graphics, but I agree with all the others, you need Army, Navy, Marine, and Airforce. I also suggest British Army and Marines, these as they are our allies in the Gulf. You might include our enemies, for former enemies,i.e the Russians. All if these rank emblems are available in the appropriate nationality or branch subjects in wikipedia.
The simple act of this will help move people towards milsim and more uniformity and appearance. Small things give people pride.

I'm going to definitely look into this. Biggest thing is getting the graphics done up and the posted up on the site. Hopefully will have some of this done within the next couple months.

The purpose of this discussion is to have the ranks of the nationalities we represent in airsoft being represented in the graphics. It's not a political discussion, nor should the decision of expanding on the ranks be based on our political views.
I respect your opinion and the right to have it, ghilli man, but whole-heartedly disagree with it.

hey man every man is entitled to their opinion but the Brits. r fighting. Yes we left Iraq 4 the most part because it is time 2 give Iraq back. They don't wnt 2 be there 4 ever. And the British r heavily involved with Afgan. And the SAS hve done alot as long as the rest of the british military.

What do you need me to do, and I'll get it done for you, the British ranks and most other nations are on wikipedia by simply typing in British Army and in the section is has the officers and other ranks rank emblems, or I can send you a batch from my files if that would be easier. I had not noticed the note from you until this morning, sorry. We had a wonderful time at Wild Geese II, held at Realms of Ruin Paintball Park, in Custer Park, Illinois. Some great pictures. Thanks for helping us. If needed my phone is 630-801-1696 and my e-mail is csmmayhugh@aol.com. My unit is also listed in Airsoft Illinois and as Airsoft Coldlstream on FACEBOOK.

I'm going to do some research online for ranking systems. And yeah, if you could send me what you have in an email that would be great. My email is rlane109@yahoo.com. And I'll look you guys up on facebook. Half my team hates that site so we never made a team page lol. Also, what size are the current rank graphics on here? That way my pictures can match the ones on here.

To Brit and Every Airsoft person out there, I have answered letters from several persons on this issue. This is the United States, I served in its Army for 20 years, my father fought and died in its defense, many of my family are doing so now. I fought for the freedom both to speak your mind and to allow others to do so. I am an American born in this country, I have 3 Purple Hearts so I know what it is to shead blood for this country. I am also of British decent. Every person in this country is from somewhere else. We as airsoft units portray everything from Russians to North Vietnamese. My Mother Country has been derided for pulling out of the Gulf, tell that to the parents and families of the British men and women who died fighting alongside of our forces in Iraq and Afghanistan, politics change, opionions change, Servicemen and women fight for their countries and just do their jobs. We portray allies and enemies for the fun of airsoft. There is no place here for racist, religious, or national attacks. I follow the road I like in airsoft and enourage you to do the same, I would like to see ranks available and ribbons for all kinds of nationalites and events. We are here to support the hobby we love, not to attack others for the choices of Nations or their policies. If you are bigitoted and cannot abide my kind, I forgive you, it is truly amazing how violent some of you are in words who have never had to actually lose a friend in combat. Everytime we write a letter or say such irrational statements we make stronger the people who are against our hobby and the right to bare arms. The people of team.airSOCOM have given us a place to expand and share our hobby, use it positivily instead of acting like KKK or ignorant children. I am asking not demanding, but you owe it to every member of this nation that has given the full measure for your rights. All races, all religions and all nations reside in this nation, and all have bled for it. Cut your fellow airsofters some slack, try studying politics and history instead of just blowing wind.
