"It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough."

I guess in Sir Jame's case, instead of collecting magnets he would be collecting dents. :)

I always thought it would be funny to have those country-code stickers, like the ones people put on cars and the like. But they're a lot harder to take off, so using them for one day wouldn't be worth the effort. The magnets are nicer for that. :)

A bunch of our guys went to South Dakota for a war a while back.  They all returned with Wall Drug bumper stickers on the backsides of their shields.   :)

I love that visored helmet thing! I want to do something similar when I find something like that.

"Say chainmail one last time" is awesome too!

And, I present the "Fish Knight" from the Codex Manesse: https://scontent-b-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/t1.0-9/10311002_837039789658507_4424483255852694424_n.jpg

I wasn't sure if I should post it, but I figured I would, just for the halibut....
