The US Army has debuted a new shoulder patch that soldiers in Iraq can wear to represent their role in the ongoing fight against ISIS, USA Today reports.
The patch features crossed scimitars, three stars, and a palm wreath. According to USA Today, the three stars denote the US land, air, and sea forces involved in the fight against ISIS.
The palm wreath is meant to symbolize honor, while the crossed swords evoke the twin goals of the ongoing operations: the defeat of ISIS and the restoration of stability in the region.
Currently, there are over 3,000 US Army personnel deployed in Iraq. These soldiers have not been deployed in combat roles; instead, they provide training to the Iraqi Security Forces and help coordinate air strikes against ISIS positions.

Yes - this patch for the war against ISIS looks like another patch for the war against ISIS.
They're both faggy and pro-islamic.
Which is why they are both perfect representations of the White House's actual mission goals with respect to ISIS.
Good art reveals, and this is good art.

The WW-2 Persian Gulf Service Command, which moved Land-Lease supplies to Russia featured a red Scimitar on a green/blue field.
Then again, I trust nothing this "Imposter from Mombasa" does.

One more thing.......Who knew???? We are at war with the Isis?
Lets see. Re-arming Isis over and over again and not bombing them means war?

Awful looking patch. The first comment was a bit of sarcasm.
