The POW MIA patches category on The Cheap Place has a lot of different unique patches. You'll find more than just the POW/MIA flag, although that image does appear on a number of the patches here. The unique POW MIA ? Never Forgotten Eagle with US Flag Wings patch is very different. It's also very large. It measures ten inches wide by 8.5 inches tall. That's as big as a sheet of paper! You'll need a good sized spot on the back of a jacket or vest for this colorful image.
The POW/MIA design was created during the Vietnam War by Maureen Dunn, the wife of a missing service member. She realized that those who had missing family members needed some sort of rallying symbol. From that, a number of different POW and MIA patches, flags, shirts, and other items have been created.
The Never Forgotten Eagle features the POW MIA Never Forgotten banner in front of a huge eagle. The words are printed in the same font as the POW/MIA flag uses, and under the eagle is the silhouette of a head, the same used on Mrs. Dunn's flag. The eagle's wings are made to resemble the U.S. flag, which makes this patch really colorful. It will stand out on just about any piece of clothing.
As a biker, you can make a great statement with this large eagle on the back of your jacket. Its many reds, whites, blues, and browns will draw attention to it, while the message will remind them of those who are missing. It's an awesome patch for both decoration and remembrance.
