# using photoshop as follows (very simple)
find army font, type text, and get it all worked out in layout - in white.
- group all text together in one layer - rasterized.
find american flag and put it in layer under
back to white text, and select eveything around the text, (not forgetting to select the spaces in letters like 'o' 'p' etc etc
with the selection made click on the flag layer, and press (ctrl+ALT+i) to invert the selection to just select the text, and then ctrl+c to copy the outline into the flag
and ctrl+v to paste it in a new layer.
sound a bit more complicated than it is, but it works.

then i tidied it up by adding a 1px thick stroke line in white
