I'm pretty sure I've seen that font but probably at one of the other shops, so I don't know what the name would be. I'm sure you've checked whatthefonte tc.

Yep, I did and nothing positive came from it.

Tomorrow, one of your TSB friends with "Find My Font" will tell you (and remind all of us cheapskates that it's a wise $50 investment).

I'll be really interested if someone finds a match using "find my font" tomorrow. 

I just installed the trial period one and it only found one that was remotely similar, but a match definitely was not found.   :( :( :(

I went thru FMF and my personal collection of some 60k fonts and didn't find a match.  The only place I recall seeing that font is on the Semper Fi bumper stickers.  Someone out there do flat stock? Bumper stickers?
Grant me the ability to change the things I can, the strength to accept the things I cannot and the wisdom to recognize the difference.

Thank you for checking.

I have been on the USMC website before and never found any font identification for anything I was looking for previously.  Their site seems to be more about correct placement, format and what is acceptable and not acceptable.  Honestly I did not look at the USMC site for this based on my previous attempts.

I just looked and this posted image (Semper Fi) does not look like Colossalis, at least not to me.  But you are correct.  Colossalis is Expensive, lol.

I posted a different font request a few days earlier with just the word "Marines".  Some here and other links said it was, or should be, Colossalis.  Diane (CYW) weighed in later with the correct answer to my request for "Marines" - Minion
