Why I'm in a bad mood so often ;)

[The Wierd It]

This is why I actually bother to take the time and research appropriate guns for a setting I'm writing if I have nothing canon to draw on (I'm a fan-fiction writer, deal with it. ).

Maybe you'll get lucky and Uwe Boll will do an alien movie.

I believe we had this discussion on IMFDB about the blue berets on the Star Trek page. SAC security had funky looking blue berets in the 60's and each base had their own way of wearing them. There was a website about SAC security that had a lot of photos of them with their berets.

Good point on the SAC Security guys. Heck, they were the fellas LeMay wanted the original AR-15 for. I do believe that is the heraldic basis of the current SF blue beret worn by USAF Sky Cops.

That being said, surely the USAF truck drivers in that operation weren't SAC cops, now were they?
