Mutual Aid

Nice looking hat, but for the ignorant like me, could you explain the logo?

Here is what the interweb sez:

That one is in nice shape. I've got a wood ammo box and radio set with the decal. Came in a few different sizes. High Power too.

I'm still having a battle of wits with the hat/embroidery shop. Again, I wasn't planning really to make a bunch for sale, but I've had a couple guys, including youz guyz, that have asked. I'll probably end up, at least at first, getting the green hats, as per my picture. I wanted to get the sized/fitted hats, same colour as the Blue Jays hats. I too take a 7 3/4. So I'm going to try to get a couple of those done and one goober buddy who wants a tan.
Soooooooo, I'll report back if/when I can get any more done.
BTW, they ain't cheap fellas, so don't whine if they end up being around $75 + postage if needed, all in. And I ain't making a penny, and not really doing it to make any money. But I don't want to be out any money either.
