Cool Uniforms, Badges, Flags etc.
I don't know why, but I have a thing for such cooleties.
I like cool uniforms (be they police or military), cool badges, signs and "avatars" of different military or police forces.
Flags can also be cool.
I'm too lazy to post examples right now, but I'll make the daring assumption (based on some limited research) that the IDF has some of the prettiest badges, (though usually unpretty uniforms).
Examples:
shoulder badges:
(round badges are for people who work in offices under the general staff)
("shield" badges are for field units, devisions or air/sea ports)
ground forces: 
intelligence 
technology and logistics 
air force 
infantry 
field intelligence 
medical 
adjutantsy 
erm.. the lawyer types and military court 
armor 
artillery 
pioneering fighting youth 
emblems
air force 
navy 
infantry (bad quality) 
intelligence 
pins
paratroops flying serpent badge pin 
givati (former marines, now urban combat) badge pin
medical officer 
military police 
field intelligence 
paratroopers rangers 
counter guerilla commando 
naval commando (seals) 
sayeret matkal - general staff commando (delta) 
counter terrorist paratrooper commando "cherry"

Collections of real world items like this are called "militaria". Many peope get this collecting habit - bit cooler than stamps I suppose.

Both wrong. First contender is an American but doesn't put up his flag.

I'll give you a hint. It goes on the back of the ship or boat.
