Learn why military patches are so important and then design your own!


Military patches are very important. They help with identification and they are also a source of pride for those who wear them, telling a story of how their unit was founded and their history. They come in many different designs and a lot of thought goes into what they look like because the patch is meant to say something about the people that wear it. Learn about the different patches worn by the US Armed Forces throughout history and then design your own!
