Default Update on my Button

Ok the first thing I want to do is say I am sorry. I posted a picture of a nice button I found. Pappy thought might hav been the Caparisoned horse. It looked like a saddle to me and my wife. Now you must understand both of us have bad eyes, even with glasses.

I took it to work where a 16 year Military Vet ID'd right away. here is a link to what it is.


ARMOR


I was looking at it upside down. I thoutht the tank treads were the stirrups. Sorry for the mix up

Oh I went out today and bought a eye loop, Beale.
