Just when you think you have all the patches for one agency, a really old one pops up. I have no clue as to the era of this patch, but I just aquired it. This appears to be a very old type of design and the backing is the old cheesecloth type. |
(RIGHT) - As far as I know, this was the first patch. The agency just came out with a new set of patches in 1997. Those patches are pictured below. |

(LEFT) - This patch just came out. I'm not sure but I think that the department just instituted a traffic division. There are several questions that come to mind about non-sworn officers and legal enforcement of all types. Please enlighten me. |
(ABOVE) - This patch and the next one are currently in use by the department. This one came out to replace the last one. There may be more, and I sure would like to get my hands on any that I don't have. |

This is the current style badge patch for the agency. |
