The patch was required to be sewn on the left sleeve. It must have been about 20-25 years ago that we did that. Thank god we don't do that anymore...didn't have velcro back then. I got pretty good at sewing....my wife thought it would be a great way for me to learn how to do those "minor" repair jobs....like when you blow the seam out of your pants???
"Patches?" .... "We don't need no stink'n Patches!"

Oregon is the first state I've worked in that requires me to wear a patch. I worked in New York, New Mexico and California without having to wear patches there. We wear them on our referee shirt here in Oregon, not on the jacket. We have to use velcro or something else that's temporary to attach the patch with because you get a new one that's dated every year.
