Not to be too picky, but in response to RED, I paid for my own BDU's and most of the tactical gear I wore. I also paid for the work clothes worn by my states road dept, sewerage dept and other hard working employees. Why did I buy my own gear? Very simple answer, I wanted the best and did not want "low bidder" equipment. I hope that clears up the $$ problem. RED, you sound so bitter, that is not a good recipe for a long, happy life. Do not let a poor encounter with perhaps a non-sympathetic game warden spoil your outlook on life. File a complaint and feel better, if he was wrong then you have every right to complain.
