Background: After searching for several years for an acceptable patch to wear on my vest commemorating service in Somalia, and not finding a one, I decided to design, copyright, and produce my own.  At the time orders were limited to quantities of 50 so I sold the remainder and was surprised at the out pouring of interest from others who also were looking for a Somalia Patch.  I now keep a stockage on hand and will continue to have them made as long as there is an interest.  This is a nonprofit venture and above all an honor for me to do this for fellow veterans and a small token of respect for the service and sacrifices of all Somalia veterans from all branches of the services, worldwide, as well as civilians who served.
