Purple Heart Medal Patch — Embroidered Patch
Wounded in Service to the Nation
The Purple Heart is the oldest military decoration in the world still in use — and the one no service member wants to earn. This patch represents every American who has been wounded or killed in action while serving the nation, a solemn recognition that they gave their blood in defense of the country they swore to protect.
The Purple Heart traces its origins to the Badge of Military Merit, established by General George Washington on August 7, 1782, during the American Revolution. It was revived in its modern form on February 22, 1932, the 200th anniversary of Washington's birth. The Purple Heart is awarded to any member of the United States Armed Forces who has been wounded or killed in action against an enemy. Unlike other decorations, the Purple Heart requires no nomination or recommendation — it is earned through the simple, terrible fact of being wounded in combat. The Purple Heart is among the most respected decorations in the American military, carrying a weight and significance that transcends rank, branch, and era.
Perfect For:
Purple Heart recipients and families, wounded warrior supporters, combat casualty recognition displays, military honor collectors, veteran memorial presentations, and Gold Star families
Their blood. Our freedom.
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.
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.
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.
