During the Super Bowl the US Air Force used a famous song by the band without permission.
The song 'Fell In Love With A Girl' was re recorded for an advert promoting the Air Force Reserve, and caused the band to react with,
"The White Stripes support this nation's military, at home and during times when our country needs and depends on them.
We simply don't want to be a cog in the wheel of the current conflict, and hope for a safe and speedy return home for our troops."
