Café Viereck - Rank Patch First Lieutenant

With the Rank Patch First Lieutenant, you can display your rank even where German shoulder boards aren't recognized. This patch shows the officer rank as both NATO and US rank, making it instantly understood in multinational staff settings and during joint exercises. Originally designed for tropical shirts, it also fits perfectly on rain jackets and smocks. The rank is embroidered on a durable cotton fabric with neatly bound edges to prevent fraying. The fully stitched hook-and-loop backing doesn't use any adhesive, so it withstands rain, sweat, and heat without coming loose at the corners.
