Country:  | I have nothing against the T-shirts but that must be a joke that memo to remove the shirts because I have never seen shirts that say that on a military post in the PX's. They dont sell that...
Having said that I really like them and think they should be sold.

Country: | Its a joke fellas....
There was never any direction like that per se, naming specific shirt slogans, only one alluding to the offensive nature of said shirts and the image that it portrays servicemembers to the general public and our Aliies overseas...
I sill love the ol favorite:
Fu*k 'Em, Let Allah Sort 'Em Out...
Would sure love to run around Norfolk Naval Base, or the Mall for that matter, with this bag full of goodies...
