The Army’s patch features crossed scimitars, a palm wreath and stars. The scimitars, short swords with curved blades, are meant to symbolize the twin goals of the U.S.-led coalition: to defeat the Islamic State, also referred to as ISIL, and to restore stability in the region, according to Army documents.<\/p>\n
The palm wreath is symbol of honor. While the stars and the buff-and-blue colors on the patch indicate the three-star command and the land, air and sea forces involved in the fight.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
So what if they’ve spent millions of dollars to field four insurgents arrayed against the Islamic State, so what if the ISIS is making battlefield gains everyday. The troops have a patch. Maybe they should give them a tan beret, too. I’ll bet that whoever designed the patch gets a Bronze Star.<\/p>\n
