It’s More then just a Patch

Wearing a forest service badge, at first, seemed surreal. Since I was a child I had aspirations of working for the USFS, and to finally be sporting their logo was an honor. When the job seemed daunting and home seemed distant, these patches reminded me of my purpose and reignited my motivation. I gained a sense of pride and professionalism when wearing these patches, further motivating me to perform to the best of my ability regardless of the situation.
