I got to sit with the Captain in the pavilion at Tennessee State two years ago and enjoyed the conversation very much. I won a 3 sipper of Jack Daniels.
I think it's great costuming. All I need is an official ruling so I can cut the sleeves off a couple of my shirts for summer shooting. Just don't expect me to stand next to Mongo though. It would be like the before and after pic for a gym ad. Lol
