Description:
Since the Roman era, armed forces from around the globe have created and worn various insignia, badges, and patches. They served several important purposes, which are still prevalent today.
Military patches in the American military date back to the Revolutionary War when George Washington created the Badge of Military Merit, originally a patch that would go on to become the Purple Heart.
The use of patches continued in the American military gaining strong use in the Civil War, but in World War II, the military patches meaning began to shift. Division patches, ranks and qualifications were military patches meaning to show information about a soldier without really communicating. Military leaders on a battlefield could find the right person for the right job just by looking at patches.
The military patches meaning since then has changed significantly. These days patches are worn not only to show a person’s rank, unit, and special qualifications, but also branch of service and military occupation.
