That's funny, since I work joint and see Navy folk in cammies every single day. Same with every other branch I work with (well, those that wear BDUs still).

Thank you CBRD for applying military discounts, and doing the shirt idea for us military. Sometimes it feels like we can't catch a break anywhere but when I see shops (that support my passion and hobby) do things like this for us it seems to lift my spirits up.

Black on the shirt, branch logo's , % of proceeds going to those of us fighting overseas also cool. I know I'll feel good getting something like that when I go back to Iraq in a few weeks.

Hi Chad,

I know for a fact the troops will love this gesture.

Your lads are fine soldiers, I've been on exchange exercisers with the US Army & also served in Somalia with the Marines in '93'.

I've retired from the Australian Army after nearly two decades & I still have good mates in the US forces.

I'd love to be able to buy a T-shirt to support your troops, love your work Chad.

Thank you.

Kind regards

Steve

This is a great idea. I think doing "camo" would be more military specific, rather than just a shirt with a particular armed forces branch on the back. (It would look as if someone bought your shirt and added it onto the back by themselves) Please pm me with details on these shirts. My brother is in Iraq right now and id love to send him a shirt!

You'd be better off not putting camo on the shirts. Different Branches have different patterns/colors.

I vote for a sand colored shirt then I can wear it with my flight suit. I'm currently doing convoys over here with the army, even though I'm in the Air Force.

If you want my address to send packages I can PM it.

I vote for a black colored t-shirt. I spend 12+ hours a day in the ACU uniform (gotta love the 82nd) and I sure as hell don't want to wear anything camoflauged on my off time. Tan or sand would be good because I could wear it with my uniform! Thanks for supporting the military, your definitely one of the few!

Chad,

I don't know if you plan on making branch specific shirts or an all-encompassing one but if it is the latter then black would be your best platform. That way you could put all branch insignias on it and it wouldn't look out of sorts. If you also stuck to black it would keep your overhead down.

I am not in the military but I would still like to show my support for the troops, regardless of the branch.

i would be interested in a neutral color shirt to show my civilian support for YOU
