116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team Class A Patch

116th Cavalry BCT Patch

This is the shoulder sleeve insignia (SSI), the unit patch worn on the upper sleeve, of the 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team. It is the full-color version made for the Class A Service Uniform and the Army Green Service Uniform (AGSU). Soldiers use it to complete a dress uniform, and collectors and unit veterans buy it for the original design.

Features

• Genuine US Army Issue — This is government-issue insignia made to US military specification, not a commercial copy.
• Full-Color Design — The patch is stitched in gold, red and blue for dress uniforms, as opposed to the muted subdued patches worn on field uniforms.
• Sun And River Emblem — A gold sun with rays sits on a red field, split by a wavy blue band that carries a gold snake.
• Fully Embroidered Face — Dense thread embroidery covers the whole front, so none of the base fabric shows through.
• Merrowed Edge — A tight overlocked gold stitch wraps the border to hold the shape and stop fraying.
• Round Shape — The circular outline matches the official pattern of the 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team SSI.
• Class A And AGSU Wear — It is intended for the Army's service and dress uniforms.

About The Unit

The 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team is headquartered at Gowen Field in Boise, Idaho, and has soldiers stationed across Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Nevada. Because this patch is issued to the unit, it suits a serving soldier's uniform, a veteran's shadow box or an insignia collection where provenance counts.
