Gadsden Flag in Iraq
US Army Special Forces
At the request of customers, Larry and Patrick of The Gadsden and Culpeper American Heritage Shoppe recently had "Don't Tread on Me" flag patches manufactured.
They sent a dozen to a Special Forces captain stationed in Iraq that we met through this site. The captain and his squad wore them on missions.

USAF TSGT John Malin sent in this great shot and wrote:
I have a Gadsden that was flown for everyday of our units deployment to an "Undisclosed Location" for the opening days of Iraqi Freedom. I brought it with us both ways and had it framed upon returning home. I hope to finish the basement in my home and make the larger room the "War Room" as both my "better half" and I are recipients of the Air Force Commendation Medal. Love the fact that you are spreading the knowledge of this piece of American History. Thanks!
