Free Shirts

Alright, here's the drug deal. Six (yep, count 'em: 6) ways to get a Free DD214ops T-Shirt, and when we say free, we mean free: no shipping/handling, no tax, no fine print...

First way: Send us your unit crest (Regimental Distinguished Insignia or Distinguished Unit Insignia) and we'll send you a Free T-Shirt (stock permitting). Just email us with a heads-up, providing your name, unit (company, battalion, and regimental affiliation), shirt design and size preference, and we'll respond with instructions on where to mail the crest (and, hey now, we want the real thing---in metal---and not just a digital image of the crest, okay). We'll send out your shirt after receiving it. Sorry, but we'll only do this for the first soldier to send us each unit crest....

The first female soldier from each battalion to email us and agree to provide a DD214ops Downrange picture shot gets a free Shirt. Yep, easy as that! We'll even trust you to send us the DD214ops Downrange photo later on... We still believe in the honor system, after all.

Third way: Send us a picture of one of our DD214ops T-Shirts with someone famous (either you wearing the shirt, them wearing the shirt, or one or both of you holding it up), and we'll send you a free shirt.

Keep those DD214ops Downrange photos coming our way. We'll choose the best one each month and award a free shirt to the winner. Ain't it great to be a ham?

First Joe to name everything in the photo of our shirt surrounded by Joe Gear, wins a free shirt. But hold up, when we say name everything we mean every single thing---exact nomenclature for issue TA-50 items, and exact manufacturer name and model for non-issue gear. If noone gets it exactly after a few months, we'll give a free shirt to whomever got closest.

Finally: We'll trade a T-Shirt for an idea! You think you have some cool slogans or kick-ass drawings that you'd like to see on a shirt, we'd love to discuss it further with you. For legal reasons, we do NOT, however, accept any unsolicited submissions, so if you have something for us, hold on to it, and write us first to discuss the possibilities, BEFORE actually sharing your idea with us. If we decide to go forward under a copyright-assignment work-for-hire, we'll make sure you get that T-Shirt.

Hey, we don't tolerate posers here, so email us from your official AKO account (.mil) for the above offer.

Obviously, we reserve the right to end these offers anytime at our discretion, or to refuse any specific request for one of these offers for any reason, if we think it's a "Fraud / Waste / Abuse" thing.

Our Story

Our story begins in the Sunni Triangle in 2004. Hopefully, it won't end there. We are, loosely, a bunch of Spec4 Mafia types in a specialized Airborne Infantry unit; we're all on teams and like it that way. More...

We Donate

We pay homage to those who are no longer with us, who gave the full measure of their devotion. In appreciation, a portion of the proceeds of all sales are donated to a non-profit charity that supports the educational future of the children of fallen soldiers; specifically, we support the Freedom Alliance Scholarship Fund.
