Brother, I have to ask. Being in the military you are surrounded by PHA. What is the reception of you?
In my military travels, I've run across mostly PHA Masons, and I get the same reception from most of them that I get from you. Keep in mind though, most of them don't realize that the GloT doesn't give full recognition, since a lot of them I meet are from up north where it isn't an issue.
I also find them to be VERY knowledgeable in their grips/modes of recognition as well.
