Not really sure where to post this question so mods feel free to move it to a different section if you want. I am curious if we have any morale patch fans on this site. I have just started getting into collecting them. Mainly from all the talk and pictures I see on a different website I frequent. I only have a few already but planning on ordering a patch or two every payday! Anyone else collect?
I think morale patches got their start in the Civil War when different Union Corps had different symbols. Many of these Unit Patches became collectible. With the advent of Velcro, military patches and other patches became popular. I'm not sure what the current military allows. I like the Punisher ones.

Not sure where your getting it made at but I just got an awesome patch in the mail from ITS Solutions. Probably one of the coolest I have seen. Has a plastic 3d image on it! Will try to get picture posted. Would be cool to do one like it!
This the patch you want? Looks like you can get it on Ebay. I just ordered a few new patches and came across a few also on Ebay that I might look at getting!

Yeah, that's the one I saw!

OK, While ordering that one I found one I liked even better...
"I PLEAD THE 2nd" with an AR15 embroidered on the patch. I also ordered an American Flag with 13 stars in a circle and a III in the middle.
So my collection now consists of 3 patches. I can see more! Sorta like a baseball cap where you can change the team emblem... Someone should make these for NFL, NHL, NBA and MLB teams... They'd be a hit!

Just found a bunch of new patches that I will be ordering later this week. Now I need to find a place to start displaying them since they are all on a big pile on the table right now.
They have those glass display cabinets to show bugs n such for collections. Maybe a couple of those would work? Or just a picture frame with some cloth behind the patches?
I just like to "show the flag" so to speak. The hat gets far more looks. And I like explaining what "molan Labe" means... Makes me smile. And I have been shocked at how many positive comments I get. And to date I have not had a negative one yet.
