Bought a Veterans Ring
https://www.bradfordexchange.com/pro...mens-ring.html With all these years, I have never bought a ring. Pretty good, very solid. Stripes and Stars on the flag are a bit raised. Sterling silver, 18k gold trim and enamel on the flag. Rank and name engraved on the inside. |

I think if we can simply re-name Ft. Bragg, Ft. Hood, and other historic military installations, we can delete a few stripes and a few stars, don't you think? Probably all tied in with the '1619 project' and DIE.

Been wearing this Jostens 10K gold aquamarine stone since 2001 when I made Chief. I wear it all the time when I go out, but not around the house. Jostens has a life time guarantee, sent it back because I chipped the stone, they replaced with new, no charge or shipping.

I wear my college ring. Not a big name school but I am proud to have graduated.
Worked full time and went to school full time for my last two years. Also got married during that time |

i have several to choose from.....
at present, i wear my wedding ring on my left ring finger, and a silver ring with a Christian cross on it on my right ring finger. also wear 2 necklaces under my shirt, one a gold cross inset with diamonds from my mom and grandmother, and a shorter chain with my wife's wedding ring and a ring from my mom. both rings were given to me by my wife, so they, and the necklaces have meaning to me. |
