Big Shooter Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Cool thread, I like seeing other badges, cars & stuff. So, not trying to hi-jack, but, I'm including car and patch photos, too. 14 years on the job, over 8 as a SGT. SGT and P.O.badge: Shoulder patch: Old car: Still transitioning to the new car: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just changed uniforms from light blue shirts to the dark navy. I love the black and white uniform. I with I dpt would do badge changes also, only Lt. and above everything else is stripes on the collar. Ill throw up some unit pics once it quits raining around here.

Big Shooter Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I don't have any pics, but Patrol LT badges look the same as SGT badges, but no badge numbers for LT & above. CAPT. & above essentially the same but all gold, specific rank is on the bottom banner. Detectives basically take the eagle off the top, leaving just the shield itself. Detecs still have badge #'s, D LT's do not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiG Lady Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 We were awarded ceremonial shoulder patches at the graduation of Citizens Police Academy. These are the actual patches our PD wears. The Book-In area of our county jail has a WALL FULL of patches from everywhere imaginable. Very impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgood Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) When I was in junior high, in the early eighties, a friend my own age was just finishing up his collection of state police shoulder patches that he'd been working on for years. He had at least one from every state. Most just sent them to him when he wrote them a letter explaining what he was doing and why he wanted it. Some wouldn't give or sell one to a civillian, so he'd find the company that made the patches and get one from them. He had all fifty states, several variations on many of them, and lots of major sheriff departments and police departments. Mostly filled two 4'x8' sheets of plywood. It was quite a display. The guy always wanted to be a cop. As kids, we called him "Deputy Dan." He was a police officer in San Angelo, TX for a while. Last I heard, he was a captain in the Border Patrol.

OSI has two different sized shields now. One is large for the belt and the second is std size for the Bs&Cs case. Our Std sized is about the same as yours. Just too small IMO for visual ID in plain clothes if the SHTF. Edited November 11, 2009 by SA Friday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
