Jessica | 184 comments I've got 2 questions regarding a uniform:
1) Does it have to be a Texas Ranger, or can it be any ranger?
2) What about an officer with Homeland Security? Under what designation would that go?


message 162: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24334 comments I’ll accept any ranger - although I think a Texas Ranger is pretty different to say a Park Ranger.

For Homeland Security- do they wear a uniform? I thought they wore suits. But if there’s a uniform, perhaps create a new category for your challenge. I’m tapping away and on my phone but from memory you can add new categories for your own challenge as you go. Happy for you to do that. Maybe substitute it for one of the other closer type professions on the list 😊

Thanks for the quick reply, Jane.

For Homeland Security, I was thinking of police in the sense that a detective is a police officer through his badge and that would be uniform for every detective. In the book I'm reading, the officer wears a badge as well. So I thought I might use that, but if you'd rather not, then that's fine by me.


message 164: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24334 comments Yes - suits don’t count. They have to be wearing some sort of official uniform prescribed as part of their employment 😊


message 165: by Jessica (new)

Jessica | 184 comments Ok. Thanks for the response.

Any genre will work!

Jane (PS) | 24334 comments Sorry - I missed this question! Fran is of course correct :)

Jane (PS) | 24334 comments Hi everyone

We are going to take this challenge offline on 31 December 2020 for a while and give some other challenges a presence in the Ongoing space :)

It will probably return but in a different format - down the line.

Hope you had fun with it!
