I just know that they are not issued here at Fort Erwin or Edwards. We just show our ID's to get onto the bases.

Show off. I feel like the lights area little out of place. Maybe you could do some fake snow too.

DOD stickers are a thing of the past. They have been done away with. DoD believes they make vehicles targets out in public.
