Description
This embroidered patch features the Atlanta Fire Rescue insignia, the patch of the AFRD, the fire and rescue department serving Atlanta, Georgia. It is a round black patch with a gold border, carrying ATLANTA arched across the top and FIRE RESCUE around the bottom in red, around a light-blue center scene.
Center: The heart of the patch is a light-blue disc holding a detailed scene. The Atlanta city skyline rises in white and silver across the back. In front, a large gold eagle with spread wings perches facing left, with EST. to the left of its head and 1882 to the right. Below the eagle sit two paired emblems – a red fire Maltese cross with a blue EMS Star of Life over it – backed by gold scrollwork, representing the department’s fire and rescue services.
Top Section: ATLANTA arches across the top in bold red block letters, curving around the upper edge of the round patch and naming the city above the scene.
Bottom Section: FIRE RESCUE arches around the bottom in matching red block letters, naming the department around the lower edge. A small white star sits on each side, at the left and right of the center.
Shape & Base: The patch is round, on a black twill ground with a gold outer border. The black field and gold border frame the light-blue center disc, the skyline, the gold eagle, and the paired fire cross and Star of Life as the detailed focal point.
Embroidery Quality: Full-coverage stitching with high stitch density holds the fine detail of the gold eagle and its feathers, the white skyline, the EST. 1882 lettering, the red fire Maltese cross, the blue EMS Star of Life, the flanking stars, and the arched ATLANTA and FIRE RESCUE lettering with sharp, even edges and a durable surface that stands up to daily uniform wear and laundering.
This is one of a series of fire department patches in the gallery. Compare it with the District of Columbia Fire and EMS patch, which also pairs a fire Maltese cross with an EMS Star of Life, the Houston Fire Department patch, and the Baltimore City Fire Department patch.

🛡 Authorized Purchase & Credential Verification
Patches bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Law enforcement and public-safety buyers must provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. We do not sell agency-named patches for personal use.
Custom and fictional designs — for example, a made-up department like “Town of Western Hope Police” — are welcome, as are designs where you change the agency or department name to your own.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is shown on the Atlanta Fire Rescue patch?
The patch is round, with a black field and a gold border. ATLANTA arches across the top and FIRE RESCUE around the bottom, both in red, with a small white star on each side. At the center, a light-blue disc holds the Atlanta skyline, a large gold eagle with spread wings, EST. and 1882 beside the eagle, and a red fire Maltese cross with a blue EMS Star of Life below. Owl Badges reproduces it as an embroidered patch.
What does EST. 1882 mean on the patch?
EST. 1882 marks the founding year of Atlanta Fire Rescue, lettered to the left and right of the eagle's head at the center of the patch. It sits over the Atlanta skyline, tying the emblem to the city and its long fire-service history. We reproduce the year and the skyline in detailed stitching.
What do the eagle, fire cross, and Star of Life represent?
The gold eagle is a symbol of strength and watchfulness, set against the Atlanta skyline. Below it, the red fire Maltese cross stands for fire service and the blue Star of Life stands for emergency medical service - together showing that Atlanta Fire Rescue provides both fire protection and EMS. We reproduce each emblem in detailed stitching.
How is this different from the District of Columbia Fire and EMS patch?
Both pair a fire Maltese cross with an EMS Star of Life, but the designs are distinct. The Atlanta patch is round and black with the Atlanta skyline, a gold eagle, EST. 1882, and red ATLANTA FIRE RESCUE lettering. The District of Columbia patch is a blue fan-shaped patch with the U.S. Capitol dome and crossed U.S. and D.C. flags. We reproduce each department's design exactly as its own patch.
Can you make a custom round fire patch with a skyline and eagle like this?
Yes. A round patch with a city skyline, an eagle, a founding year, and paired fire and EMS emblems is a rich, detailed layout, and we can adapt it for your own department - your skyline, your emblem, your year, and your colors. A free proof is provided before production so you can confirm every detail.
Do I need credentials to order a patch with the Atlanta Fire Rescue name on it?
Yes. Patches bearing a real agency name such as Atlanta Fire Rescue are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Fire-service and public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Custom or fictional department designs, and patches renamed to your own department, are welcome without that step.
