Inglorious Amateurs is now offering a limited edition Operation Jedburgh t-shirt. Screenprinted on a 60/40 blend cotton/poly Light Olive t-shirt, the design pays homage to the WWII Jedburgh teams; two-to-four man teams composed of an Officer, a native French speaker, and an enlisted radioman who assisted French Resistance groups against the Nazi occupiers. It features the “Oh So Social” moniker which poked fun at the “PhDs who can win a bar fight.” The three parachutists on the back of the shirt represent the 3 main groups who comprised a Jedburgh team: OSS, SOE and the BCRA. These Jeds are departing one of the OSS’ Special Mission “Carpetbagger” B-24s.

November 25, 2014 marked the 13th anniversary of the Battle of Qala-i-Jangi and the date of the first American killed in what became Operation Enduring Freedom. Johnny Micheal Spann was not only the first American killed in the conflict, but also the first CIA officer killed since 9/11. Since that time the Agency has added a total of 33 stars to the Memorial Wall.

The front of the shirt is an artist rendition of Mi-17 helicopter used by the CIA’s Northern Alliance Liaison Team (NALT) just after 9/11. The back is the Memorial Wall located in the lobby of the Original Headquarters Building, with the most recent 33 stars highlighted in remembrance and accompanied by the wall’s heading “IN HONOR OF THOSE MEMBERS OF THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE SERVICE OF THEIR COUNTRY”
