Sheriff Training Division Patch — Order This Scales & Book Star
Design S0596A at a glance
A gold five-point star set on a navy badge field, carrying an unusual emblem stack: a tree over the scales of justice over an open book. The book is what makes it a training patch — academies and FTO programs order this layout because the star keeps command authority while the book tells recruits exactly whose classroom they are in.

About this training-division star design
Training units usually settle for the department patch with a rocker added; this design gives the academy its own insignia instead. The open book at the star's base is the international mark of instruction, the scales above it tie the curriculum to law, and the tree crest reads as growth — a deliberate emblem sequence for an FTO or academy staff patch.
Issue it as drawn or adapt it: restitch the arcs to your county and division, trade the navy for black, or have the tree redrawn as your state tree at no art charge. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

Sheriff Training Division Scales and Book Star Patch questions
Can the tree become our county seal?
Yes. Send a photo, patch, or PDF of the seal and we redraw it stitch-ready at no art charge. Your proof shows the redrawn crest before anything is produced.
Is there a subdued version for range wear?
Yes. We embroider this design silver-on-black and in subdued tan alongside the navy-gold shown — preview each in the markup tool.
What backing do academy polos need?
Iron-on works for polos washed cold; duty shirts and range jackets should run sew-on for durability through industrial laundering.
Can the ribbon carry our academy motto?
Yes. The motto ribbon and both arcs restitch to your exact wording — county, division, or class motto.
How do I request changes to this design?
Use the "mark up this design" tool in the quote form: circle elements, pin numbered notes, switch colorways. The markup attaches to your quote.
