This is an example of a custom framed aviation guidon with unit memorabilia. This aviation guidon was presented to a member of the Alpha Company, 3rd Battalion, 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment. This embroidered aviation guidon measures 12” x 9”. It was custom framed and was presented as an expression of gratitude to a member of the unit. The design for this aviation guidon includes an opening directly beneath the aviation guidon containing a unit photograph. Beneath the photograph is a 3rd Battalion, 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment challenge coin. Beneath the coin is a black satin finish custom nameplate with yellow line borders. Flanking each side of the nameplate are challenge coins. This 160th Special Operations Aviation guidon design utilized triple mats to match the aviation guidon’s colors. The top and bottom mats are a royal blue, and the middle mat is a yellow/gold that matches the colors in the guidon. The guidon and the objects are triple matted using acid-free/conservation grade mats. Acid-free foamboard is used to provide additional depth and separation for the objects beneath the glass. Surrounding the objects is an open V-groove that provides added depth. The reveal created by the open V-groove serves to separate the guidon and its objects by providing color contrast. The frame is an all-wood dark brown profile with metal corner caps. This frame with metal corner caps is the most popular choice for framing guidons and military objects.
