This is our Brigade patch. I like the design. I just don't like how the unit has totally undermined any meaning behind wearing it.

It's not a picture of me. It's a pic I found in one of 13th ESC's PAO articles of one of our PSD guys. It was high enough resolution to get a good close up of the patch. It's 1 am here, I'm not about to go rooting around for my camera in the dark just to take a picture.

Lucky people, I gots the arcent patch, while historic, dating back to WW1, with combat in WW2, Desert Storms 1-5 and now Iraq and afghanistan, it just looks kinda cheesy. I want a combat patch with some ohfmph behind it. I want my 101 patch back (was originally awarded it then they took it back because I didnt report directly to 101).

This was our unit patch in Kuwait, that we never got to wear because they never did a subdued version I thought it was pretty cool but it's busy as hell

On my last Afghan tour, I was awarded combat patches from both the 82nd and 173rd. I wore them both proudly, partly because I'm an AF guy, so wearing ACUs with combat patches is a really cool thing, even though I can never wear them back at my home unit.

More than half the time I dont even bother wearing all the neat stuff that goes on my acu. More often than not the combat patch, but the last time I wore all the dangly things on the left side was a few years back

Those aren't combat patches, they are my Unit patches.
