British Army Afghanistan ISAF Woven Patch 1

The British Army Afghanistan ISAF Woven Patch is a cloth insignia representing service with the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan. The patch is typically rectangular and features the ISAF emblem, which may include both English and Dari script, highlighting the international and multinational aspect of the mission. Woven construction is used for durability and a clean, detailed appearance. These patches were worn on combat uniforms by British Army personnel deployed to Afghanistan as part of the NATO-led coalition, from 2001 until the conclusion of the ISAF mission in 2014. The ISAF was created by the United Nations Security Council to assist the Afghan government in maintaining security and to support reconstruction efforts. Worn insignia such as this patch serve as identifiers of operational service and affiliation during deployment. The patch’s dimensions, colors, and exact design elements may vary slightly depending on issue period and uniform regulations.
