We’ve had notions of “hoisting the black flag” at some point in our lives. While the thought of being a pirate is a romantic notion, the black flag has been used by Daesh to terrorize the Middle East. It’s time to take it back and there’s a way to do it. One group of men who strike fear in the hearts of ISIS are ISOF.
A group of retired SF NCOs who worked with the Iraqi Special Operations Forces from 2004-2011 want to show the world what their Iraqi brothers are doing in defense of their country.
They are raising funds to create these flags which will be shipped to Iraq and flown by ISOF as they destroy Daesh.
The flag was inspired by ISOF’s use of black uniforms and black gun trucks. They took the traditional pirate flag and replace the sabers with crossed arrows of the Special Forces branch. The term “Nous Defions” is the motto of SF’s direction action elements.

What about the charity to fund eye pro for Iraqi Army? I still see far too many going without it. With Drones now dropping hand grenades and small shells the need for fragmentation protection is paramount. Psychological warfare is cool and all, but that’s going to cause some confusion in the meantime.
I really would suggest shifting the focus of this project away from aesthetics, because ISOF already patches the hell out of their uniforms and flags their humvees to death.
Just my two cents.
According to latest videos, after American instructors leave the country these ISOF guys turned into the bunch of clowns in gay slim uniforms covered with dozens of bright Velcro patches and fake 5.11 logos, with the shooting and tactic skills not better than Daesh
So… a unit’s capabilities aren’t directly tied to the number of morale patches they wear?
Somehow I don’t see the CIF doing some “look at me” type bullshit like this.
Ha! Ever met any of those guys? They’re like SEALs, give ’em 30 sec and they’ll tell you.
I remember after the first week of issuing CTS its Maxxpros they were murdered out and had running boards so the could get like 20 dudes on each truck. Good times
