Graphic Design for Military & Government
Advanced graphic design work for the U.S. Department of Defense, federal agencies, and state and local governments, is one of my core specialties, drawing directly on a career built around precision under pressure. I speak the language of RFPs, unit heraldry and mission timelines, and thoroughly respect the accuracy that government work demands, down to the last star and stripe. I am a lifelong military historian, insignia and heraldry expert.
My credentials include the official F-16 pilot patch for the Republic of Singapore Air Force, unit crests for U.S. Army attack helicopter troops, and numerous fascinating projects for Tier 1, 2 and 3 Joint Special Operations Command units. When you need a designer who understands the subject matter as well as the artwork, that's the work I want.
What It Includes:
Government and military design work covers unit patches and crests, official seals and insignia, briefing and presentation graphics, technical publications and training materials, signage, wall posters and reference materials, and campaign creatives for public-facing initiatives — each produced to the highest standards of accuracy and mission-compliance.
Working Within Government Requirements:
Government work runs on specifications, vice "preferences" — correct heraldry, accurate unit designations, proper use of official seals and color schema, and file formats that match your procurement or publishing requirements. Every project is built around those constraints from the first sketch, not as a correction pass at the end, so it clears review the first time.
Typical Timeline: Most engagements run two to four weeks from kickoff to final approved files, depending on agency or unit review cycles.
FAQ:
Can you work within a formal RFP or contracting process?
Yes — I regularly scope and deliver work through formal solicitation and procurement processes, including CAGE-coded contracts (CAGE: 17TX6, UEI: NS3JA6BZAJS8, NAICS 541430).
Do you require security clearance for this type of work?
Most design engagements involve unclassified, publicly releasable materials and don't require clearance. If a project has specific handling requirements, we'll address that prior to commencing work.
