Design S0761A at a glance

About this eagle and columned building operations shield
Columns are architecture's way of saying public institution, and pairing them with an eagle and the scales of justice makes this one of the most civic-minded patches in the police line. It suits departments whose operations bureau works out of a historic headquarters or city hall. The navy, gold and white palette keeps the many elements from feeling crowded.
Departments often redraw the building as their own headquarters or courthouse from a photo, set the city name and founding year, and change the operations line to patrol, investigations or support services. 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.

Law enforcement operations patch questions
Can the building become our headquarters?
Yes. Send one straight-on photo of the building and we redraw it stitch-ready at no art charge, keeping the eagle and scales above it.
Can the unit number line change per division?
Yes. Each division title or unit number is its own version on the quote, with the rest of the art unchanged.
Can we remove the scales?
Yes. The eagle can stand alone over the building, or hold a different emblem, and the proof shows the change.
Is there a chest-size version for polos?
Yes. A 3-inch version with the lettering simplified works on polo chests and can share a quote with the shoulder run.
How do I send our photo and wording?
Attach the photo in the quote form and pin wording notes on each lettering field with the markup tool. The 4-hour mockup returns with both in place.
Need a different division covered?
An operations shield anchors headquarters wear. The police designs beyond the eagle and columned building shield include patrol, K9 and specialty units. For build and budget groundwork, the custom patch overview pricing an eagle and scales shield by tier is the better first stop.
