Added a little bling to the Platinum
I like how this turned out. I ordered different emblems for the tail gate - Crossed Pistols (MP), Combat Action Badge, and Parachutist Badge (all of which I earned) on one side and the US Flag with a Back the Blue stripe on the other side. Have to get the dealer's emblem removed to make room.

Ehhh. Not my cup of tea. Different strokes for different folks though.

I am in no way affiliated with this company. Unfortunately for the other branches of service, they only seem to cater to the Army at this time. I got the emblems here: www.shadowsixromeo.com

That's the beauty of being the the US. You can do what you like no matter what other people think. It doesn't affect me and if you're happy by all means put those emblems all over!

Thank you for your service and an accomplished career in the Army.
I currently have 31 years in and will have 33 years when I retire in May 19, my wife is retired military. Although we are proud to serve or have served you couldn't tell when you look at our vehicles. Actually, the military advises against identifying yourself that way. Sad, but it is a sign of the times we live in.
My truck is identical to yours and I didn't even like the dealer sticker on there and removed it. Stickers or emblems aren't my thing, but to each their own.

What branch of the military advises against any markings on a vehicle to identify the driver as military?
Do you have a copy of that order?
That reasoning would dictate that an active duty member not be in uniform when going off base.
That the uniform should not be worn when traveling?
It doesn't pass the common sense test.
