Jade Helm 15

Youo're just scratching the patch surface there Keith&Co. Military personnel who attended the conferences where I presented papers on Workload, Fatigue, Supportability, Reliability and Maintainability, Machine Vision, Operability, TCAS, MILSTDs 203, 207, 1472, and Global Operator Modeling Systems all received patches. I'm so proud of my importance to the military.

Be proud.

Then there are the patches for missions that are so Top Secret they can't have a symbol. Totally black, or blank, or without attribution to who, what, why or where...

The acronym across the bottom is 'None Of Your Fucking Business.'

I'm an Old Crow retired. Oops.

My uncle, who is a (now retired) Squadron Leader in the RAF, tells of the forming of the Combined United Nations Tornado Squadron, for duty in Kuwait in 1991. It was a multinational squadron, with a core of RAF Tornado GR-1s, and all was going well until the CO saw a sample of the proposed squadron patch - an overhead view of a Tornado on full afterburn, with the acronym below.

They were hastily re-named '11 Composite Squadron'.
