Requirements
Must have
- Upper left (or in center as part of a faux label) should have LTG's name an 3 star army flag which can be found online
- handwritten teaser about Gen Patton
- 11 unit patches -- you can include logo if you like. I've mailed calendars in flats many times and sometimes put a faux label in center that looks good. Logo could go here but doesn't have to. LTG flag is probably more impressive
- Address: 215 West Avenue D
- Killeen, Texas 76541
Nice to have
- If you go with a faux label (not pushing this idea), it's good to have enough contrast that it looks like an actual label from distance. I'm not sure if it's best to display the 11 patches in a circle or diagonally. I'm a writer not a designer.
