If you are a veteran, a family member of a veteran, or if you know a veteran, then you know how hard it can be on everyone when they are called to serve this nation. It's something that weighs heavily on the souls of all those involved. This large Veteran Patch With Eagle. In Memory Of Those Who Died is intended to commemorate this sacrifice in a manner that will show respect and honor to those veterans who died. For those who have ever lost someone who was on active duty, this US Veteran Patch is a way to make sure that their memory and sacrifice are not forgotten.
The large patch measures eleven inches by five inches, and it is intended to go on larger items like jackets, coats, vests, and saddlebags. It's a black velvet patch with intricate embroidery work. In the middle of the patch is a silver eagle trimmed in gold that's stretching its wings out. In the eagle's protective embrace is a gold outline of soldiers holding weapons at the ready in a protective stance. Slightly behind them are rows of crosses for those who have already fallen. Above the eagle are the words 'In Memory of All Those', and to the side of the soldiers it continues with 'Who Died Defending Our' all in gold lettering. Underneath the eagle is the word 'FREEDOM' in bold silver letters.
The patch is easy to apply to a number of fabrics, and the glue on the back can be activated with the heat from an iron. However, if you are applying the patch to leather, you will not want to use an iron but instead sew the patch on by going around the edges. You can do this by hand or with a machine.
