I've noticed lately a few topics where the message icon selected had nothing to do with the topic at had. Specifically a few used the EME flag when the subject was clearly unrelated to Electrical and Mechanical Engineers.

Sure I'm picking at nits, I fully admit it. But Corps /; Branch / Regimental pride is important, and I'm sure members of the Armored Corps woudn't want their Corps icon posted on a topic discussing Naval Operations, and so forth.

Just my  :2c:

I think you'll find that the icon is selected by the member; I usually use the Army icon (from the dropdown list headed Message icon: just below the Subject block.

But this time I chose the C&E icon, which I am also "qualified" to use.

And now the Infantry icon - also "qualified."

And I could have chosen from about 10 different rank icons ... I spent quite a while as a lieutenant colonel.

Too bad there isn't a "CENTURION" icon........

;D :surrender:
 
I take your point and agree heartily. However, the posts I referred to the OP used an EME icon, and looking at their profiles they clearly were not EME members.

We also like it spelled correctly. ;)
 
My apologies, but when you have your OS set for 'Merican it's hard to type using the Queen's Colonial English. ;D

ARMOURED!
 
I thought the Corps was "Armour."


...with "Armoured" meaning you had slabs of metal bolted to you or something.  :dunno:

Until a couple of weeks ago, we were the Armour Branch.  We are back to them malapropistic yet historical "Royal Canadian Armoured Corps"
