About this winged eye task force design
An eye with wings says watch and reach, and crossing lightning bolts beneath it adds the signals and communications side of the mission. Together they make a strong emblem for intelligence, electronic surveillance and communications task forces that want something sharper than an eagle. Navy and gold keep it federal in tone, while green and silver give the wings and bolts depth.
Customize it for your unit: restitch the agency and task force lines, change the established year, or build a blackout version for plate carriers. 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.

Winged eye task force patch questions
Can our task force name replace the lettering?
Yes. The agency line, task force name and established year all restitch to your wording, and the mockup shows the exact layout around the emblem.
Is there a blackout version for plate carriers?
Yes. The eye, wings and bolts stitch in a single tone on black, tan, OD green or wolf gray. Try each one in the markup tool.
Can the lightning bolts be removed?
Yes. The winged eye works on its own, or the bolts can swap for crossed keys, arrows or a unit number — redrawn at no art charge.
Can we skip an official seal for off-duty wear?
Yes. Many units order this design precisely because it carries no official seal, which makes it suitable for training and conference wear.
How do we request changes?
Circle the eye or bolts, pin numbered notes and switch colorways in the markup tool on the quote form. Your marked-up version attaches automatically.
