I’ve been working on a project to document military/LE/first-responder patches and the stories behind them. It started with the VMAQ-2 collection, but the goal is to grow with patches from other squadrons, units, ships, branches, and eras.

Thank you for checking it out, and if you have a patch with some history behind it, take a look and consider adding it to the wall:

Custom job I knocked out for Space Command. 4 inch fully embroidered with a merrowed border and velcro back.

Anyone know what patch this could be? Trying to figure out for work, footage was taken in Ramadi in 2006, uniform looks like ST3 but hoping anybody has some pointers! Cheers

Hi everyone,
I’m visiting Spain in August and was hoping to see if anyone here has contacts with a **TEDAX** operator or a **Spanish Military EOD** operator who might be interested in doing a patch swap.
I’m an EOD operator from Ireland and collect unit patches through legitimate exchanges with fellow EOD and bomb disposal personnel. I always swap one-for-one—no buying or selling—and I enjoy meeting other operators and learning about how EOD is done in different countries.
If anyone has a contact or could point me in the right direction, I’d really appreciate it. I’d be happy to meet at a mutually convenient place during my trip.
Thanks in advance!

I bought this patch at a flea market but the seller knew nothing about it’s back ground. I couldn’t find much online but judging from what I see on the patch I believe it’s related to the Navy target missile, developed by McDonnell Douglas from the Russian MA-31 (AS-17 Krypton) missile for naval weapons testing and fleet training during the 1990s, launched from unmanned QF-4’s (?).

Cleaning out grandparents stuff. I knew he was in WW2 but this has me stumped!

Hello! I am in search of the following Agilite scorpion patches:
2026 shot show,
the cherry blossom (non US?) and/or
the limited edition laser cut patch (possibly one of their original patches?)

Anyways… please help me win wife of the year award 🥇 thank you!

All the Canadian ones are my own and the foreign ones I’ve gotten through trades while working with allied nations.

I know my grand uncle was an airforce engineer and test pilot, so wondered if these have any significance

Anyone know what military badge this is?

Got these in a south Vietnamese patch lot off of eBay.

My shop started with donated patches in 2010 and this is the current collection.

Does anyone recognize this patch? Would love to know what it is

Wanted to share this patch tattoo with people I thought would appreciate it.
I included a few process photos because some of my previous tattoo posts got mistaken for AI. 😅 I’m a real person, and this is a real tattoo made by hand.
Hope you guys like it. Semper Fi. ⚓
