About this design
A survived mandatory fun and 0400 formations shirt and mug with five stars, a clean joke for veterans who endured both.
SURVIVED MANDATORY FUN and & 0400 FORMATIONS sit above a gold rule and U.S. VETERAN, with rows of stars at the top and bottom. It names two enduring features of military life: the event that is supposed to be optional but is not, and the formation that starts before the sun. The stars give the joke a straight-faced, almost official layout, which is most of the humor.
It is for veterans who have stood in the dark for a head count and then stood in line for a picnic they did not choose, and for the family members who have heard the stories. The design works on a mug, a shirt, or a hoodie for a birthday, a reunion, or a gift exchange.
The design is printed to order on garment-dyed heavyweight tees, pullover hoodies, ceramic mugs, and vinyl stickers.
