There are a lot of veterans of the U.S. coast guard out there. While many people tend to forget the coast guard when they're thinking of the branches of the military, it is a very important part of the armed forces. The coast guard protects our coastal areas and helps ships that get lost, have breakdowns, or get caught in storms. The coast guard does have an armed division that may be sent into conflict zones as well, and these soldiers do sometimes seem conflict. If you're a member of the coast guard or if you're a veteran, you might want to add this large US Coast Guard Rocker With Flags Patch to the back of your jacket. It can be found in the US Coastguard Patches section of The Cheap Place.
This large rocker features a half of the U.S. flag on either side of it. This gives it a little more color and style than a normal rocker patch, which is usually made up of embroidered white text on a black background. While that is how the main section of this rocker is done, the extra sections done in color give this patch a little bit extra.
This patch, unlike most rockers, is not designed to go on your sleeve. Instead, it measures eleven inches across by 4.5 inches tall. It's made to go across the upper back of your jacket. A smaller patch or even another large patch can be put underneath it. This patch can be ironed on to the back of your jacket unless it's made out of leather. In that case, you'll need to sew it on.
