About Popular Patch

While serving in the Navy, Don McGrogan began collecting military patches. At that time, it was impossible to find patches for most units, so he began having patches made. After serving 26 years in the Navy and retiring a Senior Chief E8, Don McGrogan's love for collecting and selling patches turned into a business.

Now, three generations later and his passion for military patches continues. You might say patches are in our blood. We hope to continue to be the worlds largest provider of commemorative military emblems and welcome you to join us on our journey.
