Product Description

US Army Alaska 172nd Infantry Patch

Forged in the frozen north — the 172nd stood watch where others wouldn't.

The 172nd Infantry Brigade (later redesignated as the 172nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team) was one of the U.S. Army's premier Arctic and cold-weather fighting forces, stationed at Fort Wainwright and Fort Richardson in Alaska. Tasked with defending America's northernmost frontier during the Cold War and beyond, the 172nd trained and operated in some of the most extreme conditions on earth — temperatures plunging far below zero, whiteout blizzards, and vast wilderness terrain that tested every soldier's endurance. The brigade deployed to Iraq and other theaters, proving that soldiers hardened by Alaska could fight anywhere. This patch represents the soldiers who served in the Last Frontier, standing guard against threats from across the Arctic.

Perfect For:
172nd Infantry Brigade veterans, US Army Alaska personnel, Arctic warfare soldiers, Cold War-era Army veterans, and collectors of Army brigade combat team insignia.

Trained in the cold, ready for anything.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right backing?

If you want to swap patches on/off gear, choose hook & loop (velcro). If you’re attaching permanently to uniforms or fabric, choose sew-on. If you want quick application on compatible fabric, choose iron-on / heat seal (when offered). Backing options are shown on the page and update based on the variant you select.

What size is this item?

Size is shown on the product page and updates with the variant you select (example: 3"). If you’re mounting on a hat or small panel, choose smaller sizes; for plate carriers and display boards, larger sizes fit better.

Are these Officially Licensed?

If the product is officially licensed, it will say “Officially Licensed” in the title and/or in the product details. If it doesn’t, it’s still a legitimate product—just not part of a licensed program.

Do you offer bulk or reruns for units/squadrons?

Yes. If you see a note like “bulk reruns available,” that means we can support group orders or reruns. If you don’t see it, contact us with the unit/squadron and quantity and we’ll confirm options.

Can you make a custom patch / name tag / lanyard / apparel?

Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
