And I shall claim proudly. Strange you mention that today.
On a semi-related side note I was at walmart today. Ran into a gent at the checkout who was a preacher. He commented on my sidearm (compact 1911

) wondering/asking why I needed it. Told him I really hoped I never did but . . . and got interrupted right there. He started asking-- Are you a member---and I returned the interruption right then, commenting that yes, I was one of
Them with all the proper inflection and tone change.
He shook his head and went to another line. I smiled the rest of the day.
Some days life just works out.
