Psychological operations debuts new 'longest tab'

Psychological operations debuts new 'longest tab'

FORT BRAGG, N.C. ­— Members of the Psychological Operations (PSYOP, PSYOPs, PYSOPs) community are triumphantly celebrating today as their regiment gets its first unique, regulation uniform tab that will be much longer than all others.

The tab, to be placed on the upper left sleeve of any military uniform, can be worn by any service member that ever held the 37-series designation, regardless of how they entered the occupation, sources said. The embroidery spells out the entire Psychological Operations name, therefore making it the longest tab available, already having been unofficially dubbed 'the longest tab,' in comparison to the Special Forces (SF) 'long tab.'

Sources confirmed many SF soldiers had already been angrily venting on professionalsoldiers.com and Facebook about their hatred for the PSYOP symbol.

"Just get rid of PSYOPs and their tab. If we need a fucking loudspeaker on the mission, I can operate it myself," said one Special Forces senior communications sergeant. "PYSOPS tab sux!" his junior communications sergeant added, in a response to the Facebook comment.
