I've Joined The Crew of the Nostromo.

Well, at least I can pretend that I have, now that I've bought this recreation of an embroidered patch, like the one that the crew wore on their uniforms in the movie Alien.

USCSS Nostromo Patch

I'd seen these offered up by a place called Intergalactic Trading Company, and had been thinking about getting one for a while now. I'm very glad that I did, as it's absolutely perfect.

Under their "Alien/Aliens" section, they offer a wide variety of other patches, and I'm more than likely going to send off for some from Aliens in time. Putting together a Colonial Marine jacket would be awesome, but for now I'll be looking for just the right navy colored cap, to make a hat just like the one Harry Dean Stanton wore in the first film.
