Many people picture veteran solders as grizzled old men who have seen horrible things, and while that does describe some vets, it leaves out the many women who have served their country. Female veterans are actually much more common than people think. Women have served in the military in different capacities for years, and those who have veteran status are no less deserving than men. While most Veteran Patches can be worn by both men and women, this Lady Vet Patch is aimed specifically at the women who have served their country.
Until fairly recently, most women in the military served in some sort of medical capacity or were not deployed into war zones. Women were believed to be too fragile to go into battle. In today's modern world, that has all changed, and now female soldiers see combat, serve in many different positions in all branches of the military, and hold high ranks. These women have earned the respect of their fellow soldiers, and they wear their uniforms with pride.
This Lady Vet patch features large block lettered embroidered in red on a black background. The border around the patch is also done in red, so all you need is some red thread to sew this patch onto a leather jacket. It also has heat-activated adhesive on the back, so if you're not putting it on leather, you can iron it on. The patch measures three inches wide by 1.5 inches tall. Don't have room on your jacket? You can put this patch on your canvas wallet, bag, purse, hat, or even belt.
