Some people have asked about the significance of the design of the Nevada Patriot Guard patch.  It is actually much simpler than it looks.

 

The outline of the patch is the geopraphical outline of our state.  Our state flag in the middle is our patch.

The Nevada State Flag is cobalt blue. In the upper left hand corner are two sprays of sagebrush, the Nevada State Flower, in a semi-circular design.  Above the sprays is the state name, "NEVADA", a Spanish word for "Snowclad" as a reminder of the great peaks of the Sierra Nevada mountain range.  Above the state name is a silver star representing the Nevada State Mineral, Silver and the wealth of mineral resources within the state.  The words "BATTLE BORN" on the gold scroll above the star testify that Nevada was admitted to the union during the Civil War.

The three stars to the left of the flag and six stars to the right of the flag, with the numbers 3 and 6 respectively, represent Nevada’s admission to the Union as the 36th State.

The actual patch looks much better than the picture shows. Because of the metallic thread, we can't get a good photo to upload.  100% of the money for the sale of patches go to the cost of the patch, ordering more patches and flags for the Patriot Guard, plus any shipping costs.  D&M Cycle School is providing a way to purchase the patches, but does not make any money on the sale.
