The following is an exercise in graphic design and is submitted for use by the Els Zuávs da l'Altahál Rexhitál (The Zouaves of the Royal Bodyguard). If those in change of the organization wish to use these designs with edits, please let me know.

Those look great! I really like the little catch phrases for each one (Except the captain of course  ;)), it really gives them some character.

My feedback on the last design:
Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on March 11, 2022, 12:37:33 PM
While I never implemented this, when I reformed the Zuavs and created the current system, I imagined that their colours would be blue and red, in keeping with their Berber origin.  The French Zuoaves wore a stylized version of a traditional Berber costume, with blue jackets with red trim and red pants.  So blue with red trim would be my advice, but of course the current commander gets to set all of that policy (unless the MinDef overrules him).

The current award design -- as far as it goes -- has one silver bar awarded for PSC, two silver bars for PFC, one gold bar for SPC, and two gold bars for CPL.
Those would still be my color preferences, personally. I love the squirrel, crow, and crown motifs.
