Thank you for your time & I look forward to hearing from you soon, Mike Edited January 2 by michael.trunko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael.trunko[TK] Posted January 2 Author Report Share Posted January 2 Thank you Chemi! I just saw Barry's submission and see that we both have the same armor maker (Dave's Darkside Depot-formerly AM). Barry did the trimming of the button piece on the abdomen and it looks fine even without the "notch." So, I just clipped mine, too. New photos have been put in the original post. Have a great day, Mike 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chemi[Staff] Posted January 2 Report Share Posted January 2 Hi Michael, and thank you for your Centurion application! CRL and CENTURION Application Requirements: All required photos have been submitted, and on behalf of the entire D.O. staff we are pleased to welcome you to the rank of CENTURION . Congratulations! Other-Armor Fit/Assembly; In this area we review observations made by your fellow troopers and the DO team. Some observations may lead to suggestions to improve the overall look of your armor, and please keep in mind that we consider both text (CRL) and pictures (screen caps/reference images) when reviewing submissions. Thank you very, very, very much for correcting the requirements for Centurion, and correcting the suggestions as well. Just a couple of things... - Something that we did not see in your EIB application, and that we have been able to see in another application, is that you are using a hearing assist system, but we can see the white ABS inside the holes. We recommend exactly the same "We suggest using a black Sharpie marker or a few dabs of black paint with a tiny brush on the inside of these so that they are not so noticeable. If you are no longer using the system, we ask that you fill in the holes and hit the bar with another coat of paint." Reference images The lower screw in both ears are at an angle and should be flush. Reference images And that's all Michael. You can now proudly wear the Centurion badge under your name. Congratulations!!! P.S.: Request your Centurion Certificate HERE: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
