This doozy was spotted by Wired's Danger Room team:
"We’ve featured some seriously over-the-top military patches here in the Danger Room. This one, nabbed by Spencer in Afghanistan, counts as one of the most over-the-toppest.
The emblem is for Task Force ODIN — the team of killer drones, manned spy planes, and intelligence analysts, named after the all-seeing pater familias of the Norse gods. And it’s just what you’d want from an Army-meets-Asgard mashup.
On the patch (from ODIN’s just-departed detachment) an armed drone sails over the head of a blond, bearded warrior, clad in chain mail. “SURRENDER OR DIE!” screams the text along the bottom. But the ironic thing is, ODIN isn’t really in the killing business any more.
During ODIN’s original incarnation, in Iraq, the task force helped bring hundreds of insurgent bombers to an early end. These days, in Afghanistan, ODIN is more in the business of surveillance and intelligence-gathering. Guess “SURRENDER OR WE’LL WATCH YOU FOR A WHILE” wasn’t a catchy enough slogan."
