Three new designs honor the hardworking aircraft maintainers who serve their country and their families—often at the same time.
[May 15, 2025 | United States] – Just in time for Father’s Day—and perfect for birthdays, Christmas, or deployments—Custom Flag Nation and Hangar 2A Merch proudly announces the release of a powerful and humorous new t-shirt series celebrating the dual role of military fathers. Known for their aviation-themed flags and morale gear, the veteran-owned brand brings its signature blend of service, sacrifice, and humor to apparel with three limited-edition designs.
Each shirt features original artwork inspired by the nostalgic Americana of Norman Rockwell—updated to reflect the day-to-day lives of military dads.
This hilarious design features a grease-smeared aircraft maintainer crouched beside an F-22 under a clear noon sky. In one hand, he grips a soda can; in the other, a baby bottle. The caption:
“Jet: Code 1. Baby: Code 3 for Blowout.”
It’s a relatable gift for any father who's ever gone from launching a jet to handling a diaper detonation. Ideal for birthdays, deployment care packages, or a laugh-out-loud Father’s Day surprise. See the Code 3 for Blowout shirt.
Celebrating the complex simplicity of a military dad’s life, this version features a confused mechanic in OCPs holding a baby bottle in one hand and a soda in the other. With his torque wrench nearby and an F-16 in the background, the message is clear:
“Dad and Maintainer. Equally Skilled at Both.”
Perfect for birthdays, Father’s Day, or just to show appreciation for those who do double duty. See the Equally Skilled at Both shirt.
Swap the soda for a cold beer and you’ve got this version—designed for those who know that maintenance doesn’t stop when the flightline shuts down. It’s a lighthearted nod to the balance between mission readiness and fatherhood chaos. A fun and memorable gift for any occasion, including birthdays, holidays, or retirement celebrations. See the Equally Skilled (Beer Can) Shirt.
“This collection was designed to capture the humor, pride, and exhaustion that come with being a military dad,” said the founder of Custom Flag Nation. “Too often, the sacrifices our maintainers make at home are overshadowed by their professional service. These shirts recognize both.”
Printed on high-quality cotton blend fabric and available in multiple sizes, all shirts are made in the USA and shipped directly from a veteran-owned small business.
The full collection is available now exclusively at:
