ukswrath[Staff] Posted December 1, 2017 Report Share Posted December 1, 2017 Hey Daniel thank you for the updated photos. Please note the mounting screws need to be installed on the blaster and the blaster needs to be shown connected to the thigh holster. Once you've done this please post an updated photo. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukswrath[Staff] Posted December 1, 2017 Report Share Posted December 1, 2017 Awesome thanks. It is mentioned in the CRL, the staff just hasn't finished the photo checklist just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you No problem, Tony But can I ask why? It should have no effect on this current level of EIB and others have been approved without it. Chest to yoke connection top Yoke/back Chest Shoulders/biceps Ab Thigh Cod/butt Everything else is velcro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to "butt in" but it`s so others can see and get inspiration for their strapping (unless the FOTK EIB is different) - great build and good luck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're are correct it doesn't have any bearing on EIB, but we use it for multiple reasons as with the OTTK. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly11[Admin] Posted December 8, 2017 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 Hi Dan I will elaborate a little on why Tony requested a photo of your internal strapping. As we offer advise on how to make many corrections, it is always in the best interest of the applicants that we make an educated decision on how something may need to be fixed or readjusted. Internal strapping will never have a bearing on your approval, but can help us to help you guys when it comes to solid advice. I have used images of members internal strapping to help explain fixes so the armour sits better on them, and without those photos it becomes guess work. We are working on the photo check list and new visual guides for FO TK's which will help everyone, just like they have for all our OT TK's over the years. Hope this sheds a little light on the life of a DO in the FISD You look fantastic by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukswrath[Staff] Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Hey Daniel sorry for the delay, thank you for posting the additional photos and thank you for your EIB application. CRL and EIB Application Requirements: All required submission photos have been posted. Very nice work sir Andrew and I are very please to announce your armor displays all the necessary elements to qualify for Expert Infantry. Congratulations! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly: In this section we review observations made by your fellow troopers and ourselves. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor and accuracy. If any suggestion affects any application, it will be listed separately in the above or below sections. Again, these are suggestions and recommendations. The accuracy is ultimately up to you. We have a few areas to go over here starting with As with your shoulder bells. The top should be level with the top of the yoke. We're suggesting you make adjustment to the support tabs so that the bells are at the level of the yoke. Reference photo Next up the TD. Not a deal breaker but the left tube extension should be roughly 1.1" (28.7mm) in length Reference photo Finally, though the F-11D is not typically seen mounted to the thigh it still requires the mounting screws. Since this is not mentioned in the CRL it's not a requirement but it's worth mentioning none the less. Reference photo Centurion Suggestions: Because Centurion photos show much more detail than EIB, items pertaining to Centurion might be seen there and not here. We try to point out all we can from what is seen but the final accuracy is the responsibility of the trooper. At this time we have nothing to add. Congratulations again and welcome to the Empire.
