An ODA in my BN is was proud of the Major League Infidels Logo they had on damn near everything (hats, stickers, chicken plate on the Up Armors). It offended the sensibilities of some and had to go.

I was really suprised when they even made some take off the "Evil Monkey" they had painted on some of the vehicles.

I found it to be interesting that the ODA's carry a good amount of stickers around and paste them on nice things like ISU-90's and ISU-60's that belong to other teams. :D

We carry squadron stickers and tag everything we can during an airshow or a deployment.

Just marking our territory. Kinda like a dog, 'cept we don't use urine.

I wonder if my "Who's your Mullah?" shirt with crosshairs over a muslim's face would make that list?

Maybe we should just make a law that you can't have anything but a solid color shirt so you don't offend anyone... :rolleyes:
