Re: Phrase for patch

There's an old war poem of the same name that makes for a good but sad read. It's written by a former soldier. Very heartfelt but enough to put you off getting the phrase put on a patch I think. I personally see that to be poor taste for an airsoft loadout but each to their own I suppose. That's just my humble view

Yeah as I said, probably a little OTT for an airsoft patch I just thought it was fitting to the conversation.

It was inscribed above the fireplace in the main hall of my school and t's just been one of those things that stuck in my mind.

The only other latin I can sort of remember is

placet praeterīs panis - please pass the bread

although it might be wrong, been a long time and I can't remember the proper conjugations

The tattoo on my left arm is "Horror Ubique" which translates as "Striking Terror Everywhere"
also family mottos tend to be good, like "Ad Mortem Fidelis" which is something along the lines of faithful till death.
