Just a quick one here. I took advantage of Blammo 2 from Monkey Depot, and am putting a woodland uniform together. I got out the rank/name tape/branch card and cannot really tell how exactly to apply them. I cannot tell if they are some type of water decal, or glueable, or what. They stick on the face to the card and have kind of a weird ruff surface on the back that extends a little far out. Anyone have any info?

They're iron on decals. Gotta crack out that ol' ironing board and hope you don't burn anything.

I was afraid of that. Thanks for the info. I think I will look for another way, cant imagine anything good can come from trying to iron rank patches on collars.

I have used tacky glue with good results, available at Wally-World...

I seem to have gotten it to work with loctite. Not an ideal method, but sufficient.

Colin,
I use Aleene's flexible, stretchable fabric glue for my patches.

Walmart also carries it.

I probably would have been much better off Bruce just using the ones I got from you. You know how it is though, you get something new and want to try it out somehow instead of just stickin with the old tried and true. I did use yours for the rest of the uniform.

I have the same set and I glued the patches on. Worked OK....
