James,
When a black band is worn over the badge this is usually a sign that a fellow Agent or Police Officer has died in the line of Duty. |

Thanks, I had assumed from the context it was a trainee thing. I may make it a tradition with the loss of the border territories and the losses there.

Not bad but the equipment section needs to be updated. the Border patrol stopped useing revolvers as primary weapons in the 1980s.

Sources I had showed them using into the 1990s as they were more reliable with the dust and sand. Can anyone advise?

According to Wikepedia (which I'm sure you've already looked at), it looks like one might encounter many types of pistols in BP service up until and likely through 1994- the issue weapon was a .357 revolver, but agents/officers could purchase and carry their own alternative if they so desired. In '94, they adopted the Berretta 96D in .40 SW caliber.

I am sure you will find some Agents with 20 - 30 years still carrying revolvers.

Excellent work, James, as usual. Very clean and crisp.
If a Border Patrol PC were to decide to enlist when the balloon went up, what kind of career field do you think he would find himself in? |

Just wondering if you had seen the stuff Canadian Army put up, can't remember if he posted it or if I just saw it at his place, anyway if take the US Border Patrol adopting a more convential Army Regitmental System prior to the outbreak of war. Not saying your work is'nt good, because it is outstanding as always, just giving you food for thought
