You should be able to display pretty much any field you want.  Looking at your staging briefcit.html, I see the following:

<!--{fieldspec:Vbn538}-->

...which is correct assuming your 538 is in the n field group.  But the token I see in the source code is indented, which is like not having the token there at all.  Try getting rid of the indent, and if the field still doesn't appear, make sure your 538s are in the n-tagged field group.
