Dee,

That was where my thinking was headed in the beginning and since it is for a thank you plaque to grade school kids I am going ahead and using them. The customer is a veteran and they wrote poems of what veterans mean to them. How could they be upset with their insignia on a plaque thanking them for that?
I had seen on the DOD website that they are trademarked and that spooked me as I have heard horror stories of businesses being shut down for unauthorized usage of trademarked images. I am finally to the breakeven point I don't want to loose it all for a $60 plaque.

Jim,
I think you just have to use your common sense & not do anything that would seem deceitful.

Last year I had a man ask me to engrave a well know logo on pieces of metal that would be affixed to pocketbooks. Duh. I don't think so!

A few years ago while at home, we got a call from one of our employees saying that there was a man there who wanted her to engrave what appeared to be car ID plates with what appeared to be serial numbers. He had about 20 of these plates. I called the mall police sub station and they said she should start engraving until they got there. When 2 uniformed officers approached he dumped the done tags in a mall garbage can. When he dumped them the chain of evidence was broken and although they cuffed him & took him away there was nothing they could do. I didn't understand that as she could have testified he ordered them. Duh, car ID plates are stamped not engraved!

Was his name "Harley"?

I must not be thinking today but I don't get it.

I was intentionally vague. I was thinking the well known logo's name might be "Harley".

It was the logo of a famous bag manufacturer. He said that they forgot to put it on the ones he got. Right. >.<
