Fire EMS Ladder Truck Patch — Order This Star of Life Badge Design
Design S1743A at a glance
A badge-shaped patch with a red merrowed edge, showing a ladder fire truck spraying water, with a Star of Life and a length of rope set below.

About this ladder truck and Star of Life badge
Most fire-rescue departments run as many medical calls as fires, and this badge gives both jobs equal billing. The ladder truck spraying water covers suppression, the Star of Life covers EMS, and the rope below nods to rescue — the three services named in the lettering. The badge outline keeps it formal enough for class A uniforms and distinct from the Maltese crosses on neighboring rigs.
Order it as shown or change it: redraw the truck as your own aerial or engine, reword the service line, or replace the community line with a station number. 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.

Fire EMS ladder truck patch questions
Can the ladder truck be redrawn as our apparatus?
Yes. Send a photo of your aerial or engine and we redraw it spraying water at no art charge.
Can the Star of Life move or be removed?
Yes. It can be enlarged, moved to the top or removed along with the rope, and the proof shows the new balance.
Can we change the service line?
Yes. Every line restitches — department name, service callout, founding year and community line.
Is royal blue an option for EMS crews?
Yes. A royal blue version keeps the layout and leans into EMS colors; preview it in the markup tool.
What size for a jacket back?
10 to 12 inches. The truck and Star of Life scale up from the same artwork without a redraw.
