Chad,

I was in no way shape or form arguing that carrying a walking stick was wrong. There aren't enough of us around anymore, we need more gentlemen carrying walking sticks!* But the twisted and obvious hand carved quality to it didn't strike me as very military. A plain black one with a metal top though would be nice.

Cheers
