avatars for military veterans

FoBoT

No Lifer
it would be nice to have an avatar for those of us that served/serving in the US military, one for Navy, Air Force , Army, Marines, Coast Guard

little flags would be nice


have a nice day! 🙂
 
I agree, but then we need them for everyone, all nationalities. That is the only problem I can see.

No we don't.

Just stating what someone will complain. I would love to see them and would pick one. You do know though that there would be complaining/whining about it.

People whine about everything here. Just add that one to the list. The only problem I see is that slackers who didn't serve would use the avatar and it would end up having no meaning.

An unlisted assigned avatar? Meaning you'd have to supply some sort of proof of service to get it.

But what of those that are prior military.
Also, .mil addresses are also used by civilians.
Then you have mil people working at civilian sites.

Best to leave things the way they are. Wear the flag proudly.
For non-US peeps - no offense meant.

 
If I don't get an icon for the Swedish Navy SEALS, I'll rip somebody's arms off.

Good idea, but it would be too hard to ensure that it is only used appropriately.

I wouldn't mind an Army symbol of some sort. The current "soldier" avatar is clearly a marine.
