I HATE Burch Oil. And it's owners. And it isn't a lesbian thing, either.duzzey1a said:I know this has been around for a while but has anybody noticed the Burch Oil sign with the girl on it giving a salute? I noticed it on the way home. What insignia is that? Foriegn? Anybody know? :shrug:

It's a ghey one.duzzey1a said:Yeah, but I am trying to figure out what the insignia is on her uniform. It looks foreign, and that is quite interesting since were talkin' oil.

I think the military has rules against the use of its insignia for commercial endeavors, although I don't know for sure. So I suspect the photographer had generic emblems put on the flightsuit so it would look vaguely military.duzzey1a said:What insignia is that? Foriegn? Anybody know? :shrug:

Thanks for the information. In my experience, staying away from official insignia was considered an issue of taste and respect. That would probably be more of an issue with some products than others: "Trojan--the official condom of the U.S. Navy!"David said:The military can not stop someone from using insignia in advertising to my knowledge. You just can't say things like, "The men and women of PAXRVR NAS recommend BillyBob's Oil Service!", i.e. the federal government can not endorse any individual, company or product. I don't know if there are actual laws to prevent this, but you can well imagine what the people at BillyBob's competitors would do.... call the congressman and complain.
