This is my parody of the U.S. Army's new slogan "an army of one" and a tribute to Juan Valdez of coffee fame.

Oh and for you younguns out there, java used to be slang for coffe before this fancy internet thing got so popular.

Nicely done. The second one is perfect. The first one is not as good because (in America at least) pure yellow and black always seems to give people thoughts of either bees, the yellow lines on black asphault, or the standard stick figure safety signs you see everywhere.

Also, I would like to mention that Army of Juan is a ska band. They released their album several years before the Army of One slogan though, I don't know what bizarre reason they had. I also know yet another party that independently thought of this phrase as well. I think it just begs to exist

holy cow, that's wacky! I guess it's one of those universals that have to exist in order to keep the sun rising the next day.

Interesting that the guy in the CD Cover is also soaking in a cup of coffee.

Coincidence? I think not.

I enjoy the second one alot more than the first, see if you can get a cloth material in the background, or sewing threads for the patch?

I personally like the first one because it does remind me of those safety signs/road signs you see everywhere.
