Banjo: Good luck to U and yours down there. Last time I was out of the U.S., I was sick for days due to the food handling practices. salute

Lou, two for me por favor. Can't wait, they look great! And I can talk up WOFF when people ask what they're for. How will you handle billing and addresses? Steve

If there is an option for sending overseas at some point I'd be keen.

Well I can't speak for the Selection Comittee but you can start by getting your application paperwork in order.
A note from a medical professional attesting to your inherent barminess is a good start. Then a note from a loved one stating how you are always up at dawn to check on flying weather and how you smell like aircraft lacquer and castor oil is a bonus.

Maeran, you most assuredly should be a member of our less-than-illustrious group. You can read our club charter and apply at the following link:

The Barmy OFFers Club

And for additional history go to this link:

The Barmy OFFers Club - CA

I look forward to reading through your application, and after that breaking in your new tab at the club bar at the initiation which will surly follow.

Smosh, and our other non-USA members, I don't think there should be an issue with overseas shipping. I will just need to get a price ahead of time on what the mailing costs will be.

SteveW, and all, we can handle billing and addresses via PMs here. Just get me your mailing address and let me know how you want to pay and we should be good to go.

You sure can lederhosen, I can get the list of addresses and such going. Just remember it will be about a month before the pins are done at the manufacturer so I won't be shipping any until early August sometime.

You know what I'm like. I'm already making notes to put together a suitably barmy application.


I forgot to say before, but good luck Banjoman and your lady wife. I know you're not going to the deepest darkest rainforest, but I am certain that you will find adventure in your new work.

Yes! Yes! Yes! and...I'd happily pay extra for the cut-outs. It's not that much.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But in practice, there is.

Hauksbee, sorry but no cut-outs as you either order all of them that way or none of them that way. However, consider this: The early RFC badges did not have cut-outs, nor did any of the Prussian or Bavarian pilot badges, (unless they were custom made). So historically speaking our new club pins, (sans cut-outs), will be in fine company.

Maeran, I am sure your application will be quite the read.

Historically accurate barminess!

What a great Idea! And it's looking marvelous!
I would take up to 3 - but only, if the Stock isn't getting too low - I don't want to "buy away" any fellow Member's Badge...

Nietzsche, I have you down for three and at this point you needn't worry about depriving a fellow member a pin as current pre-orders stand at 32.

And folks, remember to PM me your mailing addresses so that I can add them to the list, (so far I've received the needed info from five of our BOC brethren). I am checking on mailing costs to Europe and other points around the globe so that I can have total amounts sorted out for each of you. As to payment, PayPal is by far the easiest method and would be my preference, but you could also send a check if you'd rather. I've had some issues in the past with wire transfers so I'd like to steer clear of those.

Damn! I have so little time these days that I barely touch my PC except to pay bills. Well, PM is off to Lou, but I'll understand if I've missed out.


Oh that I was back in the dear old PBI.
With no more Triplanes on me tail, nor tracer tracing by.
And no more flames and clickerty-clack and no more blooming sky,
And only a couple of feet to fall whenever I want to die.

Dej, you most certainly have not missed out Sir. A pin will be on its way to you just as soon as they arrive.

Lou;

If you can bring my pins with you to the Dawn Patrol I will pay you in person and even give you a bonus at the bar!!
Oh, and I guess I should return the cricket bat as I suspect you will need it for the new members initiation biggrin
