I Could Tell You But Then You Would Have to be Destroyed by Me

by Trevor Paglen

January 2007 History ISBN 1933633328

Shown here for the first time, these 60 patches reveal a secret world of military imagery and jargon, where classified projects are known by peculiar names (Goat Suckers', 'None of Your Fucking Business', 'Tastes Like Chicken') and illustrated with occult symbols and ridiculous cartoons. Although the actual projects represented here (such as the notorious Area 51) are classified, these patches - which are worn by military units working on classified missions - are precisely photographed, hinting at a world about which little is known.'
