ORNAMENTATION: Arrowhead Patch

It is beyond the scope of this study to show an example of every Arrowhead patch ever made. The following sampling is only meant as a representational illustration of the developmental progression of todays Arrowhead patch.

Arrowhead patches
This is only a sampling of the many variations of arrowhead patch made over the years. The only 2 with provenance are the top left above, (first patch issued, 1952) and the bottom right below (currently being issued). No effort has been made to place the other patches in order of production, though, the large patches above predate those below and are probably from the 1950s.
