I am handsome in any color! :mrgreen:

The only color I have never worn is yellow. That color is exclusively the property of the Yankees. :twisted:

Found this on youtube. Personally, I see a resemblance to Beauregard.

That is really cool General Mihalik. The photos that they have colorized for Grand Tactician are amazing.

You are correct Capt. Blake, us Yanks do like YELLOW (AKA Gold). We use it for our buttons and ribbons. Looks great on a Blue uniform. :wink: Just like in your picture....

And check out the young lady in the yellow uniform. I think it looks quite good on her.
