Well, not exactly soldiers, but I know what you mean. The Punisher logo was used in Iraq by the Navy's SEAL Team 3. In his autobiography, United States Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle wrote “We spray-painted it on our Hummers and body armor, and our helmets and all our guns. We spray-painted it on every building or wall we could, We wanted people to know, We’re here and we want to f**k with you.” Others started copying the Punishers without permission, and today the Iraqi Army is still using the emblem as an interesting skull decoration, having no idea what it even means.

Yes! Please take that picture and post it here!
Okay, here is just one example of the Cobra emblem being used by our Army soldiers, in this case on Cobra Company, 1-502nd Infantry Regiment "First Strike", 2nd Brigade Combat Team. Hooah!
