Joint Task Force Patch — Order This Bighorn & Crossed Keys Shield
Design S0630A at a glance
An olive field drab enough for the kit it rides on, carrying a bighorn ram head before a mountain sunrise with crossed keys beneath — force, terrain and access in one crest. Built for joint federal-state details whose patches outlive the operations they name, with motto and division lines that restitch to each tasking.

About this bighorn and crossed keys design
Ram's-head crests signal force that does not back up, and mounting this one before a sunrise ridge roots the unit in the terrain it works. The crossed keys below are the subtle part — borrowed from heraldry's symbol of granted access, they read as warrant authority to anyone who looks twice.
Order the crest intact or retune it per tasking: operation wording on the motto line, a different horn curl, or the keys swapped for crossed batons on enforcement-heavy details. 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.

Joint task force patch questions
Can our own emblem replace the bighorn ram head on this patch?
Yes. Send a photo, a scan of an existing patch, or a PDF and we redraw it stitch-ready at no art charge. Your proof shows the redrawn art before anything is produced.
What colors can this joint task force patch be ordered in?
Any thread palette. Beyond the colorway shown, this art runs well in desert tan, wolf gray or full blackout schemes — preview each version in the markup tool and your quote references the one you picked.
What backing for mixed agency kit?
Hook-side velcro — every agency's carriers already run loop fields, so one patch set serves the whole roster. Uniform shirts take sew-on.
Can the lettering carry our department's own wording?
Yes. Motto and division wording sit on independent lines. Every text field restitches to your exact wording — name, unit number, or a 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, and place your own emblem on the patch. Your marked-up version attaches to the quote automatically.
Climbing a different ridge?
Task-force heraldry is its own shelf — the police patch selection beyond this bighorn and keys shield covers unit, patrol and specialty designs. For build choices and tier pricing, see the patch brief that takes the ram crest through every construction option.
