I've been to Brighton over in the UK, London and the UK is a great country to visit and I've been several times w/USAF and now as a civilian. Back in 2007 I was on a mission to get patches from each fire department w/the same name of my department. I contacted the one over there (it doesn't exist per-se) I did a patch swap of my fire department to the one over there and ended up corresponding w/a guy from that department. I try to go to London on even years each Dec and we meet up, he's been here a few times as well and we met up out in Framingham while he was staying in Boston w/his wife. Great guy, has a nice wife, works as a paramedic for NHS, great friend, all because of a patch swap in 2007.
