So, where do all these cups come from, and why? 

This is probably going to be a multi-part article. So let me start by saying this: I am still discovering new things as I encounter new items that revise older ideas I've had. It's been more than ten years since I started this hobby (I came from the angle of ceramics, not militaria, by the way).

It's a pretty simple structure. If you click on the link to the "Earn Rewards" tab on the bottom right of the page, you will see the information for the rewards program. You can redeem coupons of up to $25 in denomination at a time. 

If you have any...
