If you are looking for a patch that will not only show everyone where you are from but will also display some of the proud history of the United States Army, then this Army Patch with Logo is perfect for you. It is a rectangular twill US Army Patch with an olive green background. In the middle of the patch is a black circle with the Army Emblem in it. The top of the emblem has a rattlesnake circling the top of a Roman cuirass (which symbolizes both defense and strength).
Moving out from the center are other implements the Army has used since its inception: the sword, esponton, musket, bayonet, cannon, and mortar. Underneath both the cannon and mortar are the balls which were used in these devices. All these items have been used in defense of this country at one time or another, and they represent the historical approach to defending the United States.
Mixed in with these elements are other images of the United States: on the left hand side is a draped U.S flag, while on the other is the Army flag. Under the Stars and Stripes is a small drum. The drum represents the need to relay information to the public and serves as a reminder that the military is there to serve the public. Below this is the year in which the army was founded, 1776, embroidered in red.
This is a lot of detail to get onto one patch, but there are many elements to the official Army emblem that directly tie back to the country's beginning, its history, and its future. This patch can easily be ironed or sewn onto a number of clothing items to show the history and pride of the US Army.
