As we continue with our focus on the Military Patches found at The Cheap Place, we turn our attention to the POW MIA Confederate Flag patch. This piece marries the standard POW/MIA image with the Confederate flag to create a patch that's rather unique. What I find most fascinating about it is the fact that even 150 years after the American Civil War, the South still maintains the rebel identity to some degree. Add to that the fact that the Southerners are some of the most patriotic people in this country, and you have a fitting memorial to those who have given their lives in defense of our freedom.
The patch gives the impression of the POW/MIA "You Are Not Forgotten" image superimposed on a Confederate flag; the whole thing placed on top of a black background. The combination of the flag and POW/MIA image makes it a little difficult to see at first, but once your eyes adjust it looks pretty cool.
Military patches like this one are a great way for both veterans and non-veterans to remember those who never returned home from the battlefield. You can display this patch on a ball cap, backpack, T-shirt, or jacket. It has a plastic backing with heat-activated glue, making it easily mountable on most fabrics with a hot iron. And if you like this patch, why not spend a few minutes and browse through the entire Military Patches category? We're sure there's more you'll appreciate.
