The Cheap Place has a number of different military patches for veterans. Some of them have a similar look, such as the Vet Patch - Military Stamp Letters White. This patch comes in several different colors, such as red and green. The lettering look like it has been stenciled or stamped like the military uses to identify crates and other packages. If you're a vet and want to identify yourself as one, you'll find this patch is a nice way of doing so. It's pretty plain and simple, but that might be just what you're looking for.
Who exactly qualifies as a veteran? The word comes from the Latin word for 'old', but a veteran isn't necessarily an old person. The term can be used for anyone who has a lot of experience in a particular field or has served in one occupation for a long time. Usually, the term is used for military personnel who have participated in combat. Of course, vets can be from any branch of the military, and they don't have to have been in combat. Veterans are often honored around the world. In the U.S., they are honored and remembered on Veterans Day. In the UK, Remembrance Day, a similar day of honoring veterans, is November 11. In France, veterans who were wounded in combat can take advantage of special seats on public transportation.
If you're a veteran, let people know of your service by wearing one of these vet patches. They measure 3 by 1.5 inches and can have die cut borders that make them easy to sew on to leather clothing. If you're not putting the patch on leather, you can iron it on.
