Bob’s Brigade
Not every member carries an EMF meter. Some carry a mug and deeply suspicious questions. Everyone belongs in the Brigade.
There is no
normal.
Bob's Brigade is the home for curious listeners and people with stories to share. These designations aren't a paid ladder: you can hold more than one, and a story can be featured without paying a cent.
Recognition and merchandise details are still in development. Nobody is owed a shirt from an undeclared office budget.
Mothman's Preliminary Approval
All memberships are subject to the reasonable expectation that applicants will not feed Gary's paperwork into the stove.
Classification: Friendly, curious, unusually alert
Special conditions: None, beyond basic human decency

Field Correspondent

in your pocket.
The approved Bureau artwork, exactly as issued: aged parchment, a gold Bob's Brigade seal, and Marty's original approval stamp. Enter your name or a Bureau alias to personalize the card, then download each side or print at wallet size. The member signature line stays blank for handwriting. This is a novelty keepsake, not an identity document.
The free starter card is for Brigade Members. Other designations are earned separately, not selected from a dropdown.
Your name stays in your browser; it isn't sent to the Bureau. Download the personalized front and original back, or use Print → Save as PDF. Print at 100% / Actual Size with background graphics enabled. The two faces appear side-by-side on one sheet for cutting; they are not automatically duplex-aligned.
YOUR NAME HERE
Official-ish note: Marty approves membership, not the authenticity of any paranormal claim. No access privileges, investigative authority, or other secret government powers are conferred. Gary insists this last part is negotiable. It isn't.
