If you have served on active duty in a war, then you know how difficult it can be to lose someone you are fighting with. However, it can be even more difficult to never know what happened to them. This POW MIA Patch - Never Forget Eagle is designed to help draw attention to the plight of all soldiers who were prisoners of war or missing in action. Imagine being a family member or loved one and never knowing what happened.
If this sounds familiar to you, then this Veteran Patch is one you will want to add to your jacket as it has all of the elements of a piece of commemorative art. The patch is very large, measuring twelve by twelve inches, so it is designed to go on the back of vests, jackets, coats, or bags. Since it's so large, it has a lot of detail that is intricately wound into the stitching.
The edges of the patch have a barbed wire decoration. Written across the top ribbon are the words 'Never Forget' in red stitching, and on the bottom ribbon are stars and the POW MIA emblem, also in red. In the middle of the patch is a giant bald eagle, its wings spread and flames shooting off of the tips of its feathers. In the center of its body is the full POW MIA flag/emblem.
The patch is easy to attach using an iron to activate the adhesive on the back. However, if you want to attach it to leather, you will want to sew it on instead. You can do this by hand or with a machine, but you will want to make sure you stitch around the edges and keep the fabric underneath flat so it doesn't bunch or pucker.
