Uniform Patches

Otter · 10-17-2005, 08:49 AM

Any Law enforcement people here who collect and trade uniform patches?
I'll trade Vermont State Police patch for any other state uniform patch.

Cool idea otter, I have some old boy scout patches but I'm not in the trading thing. Got a sash signed by E Urner Goodman, its worth a few bucks.

Otter, No local patches? I will see if I can get a Maryland State Patch if you need it.

Otter · 10-19-2005, 05:01 PM

I've got Maryland State Police, I'll collect any department, local or state. Thanks

Yesterday I traded patches with a DOT officer at the weight station in Tn. Adding Tennessee to my collection. Still looking for uniform patches from other departments.

Yesterday I traded uniform patches with the Administrator of the New Mexaco Department of Public Safety at the weigh station on I-10 in Anthony, NM. She took me to her office so I could see her collection and we exchanged patches and business cards adding New Mexico to my collection.

Are you looking for any Federal Law enforcement patches?

Otter · 01-18-2006, 06:32 AM

Yes, any uniform patches, local, state, and federal, other countries, anything I can find. I can trade Vermont State police patches to anyone who collects patches.

Vermont actually has State Police? Wow. In all the travelling I did up and down the interstate in VT, I never saw a single highway patrol vehicle...ever. I just figured that they don't have a lot of presence in a small state. At times, I saw more cows than cars.

Vermont is a beautiful state. Love Cabot cheese, too. Next trip to New England, I want to go back to Shelburne for a few days.

I have family in Chicopee, right at the border with CT.

Otter · 02-18-2006, 07:05 AM

On my way to Chicopee for Monday morning, going to the industrial park that used to be Westover Air Force Base.
Vermont has more cows than people.

I plan on stopping in to the sherriff's department here in Horry County, S.C. I saw a S.C.H.P. Trooper yesterday who promised to send me a patch, I found the Sherriff Department just down the street.
