Hasbro Marketing Secrets Revealed

I really need to get a new beret, or failing that a new callsign. Back when I used to live in Canada I wore a beret all the time. They’re wonderful hats- waterproof, stylish, totally unshakable in any weather. Unfortunately my last beret was lost or stolen some time before moving to Korea. I could really use one here, what with the rainy season and typhoons and everything.

Someone stole your beret? I think it might be the French might have just recalled them to the mothership.
Please, when you get a new one, paint it purple and add guns to it.

Being in the Army for nearly 3 years has left me with a certain hatred of berets (or maybe just the one I’m forced to wear with my ACUs. When will they learn red just doesn’t match!)
Be that as it may, berets are wonderful fashion accessories. Just not one I’ll be wearing in civvies any time soon.

A friend sent me this link. Honestly, I didn’t see this before drawing today’s page.
