PHS Patch

PHS "Blazer" Patch

The DC-COA Branch has revived the classic PHS "Blazer" PATCH.  This item was traditionally worn on the left pocket of a blue blazer jacket (when in civilian attire), hence the name.  It is hand embroidered in silk and bullion, and matches the PHS Seal in design and color.  It is 3 inches in diameter and created with the same attention to detail, materials, and style as the "antique" Blazer Patches.  To order a Patch, please click order form.

PHS Coin

PHS "Military" Coin -- Help Promote the PHS

In the world of “military” coins, our coin is top quality with its inclusion of enamel, polish, and detail; military coin collectors know the difference.  This means there is a 4-color enamel on the side that has the PHS Seal (reproduced exactly).  The other side of the coin has the PHS Commissioned Corps design in detail that precisely matches our cap device. The borders on each face have recessed enameled lettering.  The face, borders, and edges are high polish, not dull and brownish.  We have a quality product that is impressive, as it should be since we are a UNIFORMED SERVICE.

The PHS COIN is a good way to advertise and promote the Commissioned Corps and the PHS.  Officers carry one in their pocket (or purse) to “show their colors” when around military members and colleagues.  The COINS are excellent mementos to use for supporters of the PHS and Commissioned Corps.  Orders for the PHS COIN have come in from active duty and retired officers from all across the country.  We have reports of Officers buying several and using them as “give-aways” to representatives from international health agencies, civic and community groups, and to high ranking military officers who have hosted PHS events.  PAC chairs are buying them as tokens of appreciation to their PAC members.  COA Branch Presidents are buying them as appreciation gifts to their Branch officers.  To order a Coin, please click order form.

PHS Flag and Seal

PHS Flag Pin

The newest item, this lapel pin is a mini version of the PHS quarantine flag, with the PHS seal in blue on a yellow background. This is in remembrance of the PHS Flag that flew over "Ground Zero" at the WTC with other uniformed services' flags.
This pin was developed by CAPT Bob Davidson of the NY COA Branch.

PHS Seal Pin

The lapel pin is the size of a dime. It duplicates the PHS Seal in design with gold colored letters and a blue enamel background. This coordinates with the Blazer Patch and the Tie.

To order PHS Flag and Seal Pin, please click order form.

PHS Seal

PHS Seal decal closely reproduces the PHS Seal in 5 colors, including the caduceus and border in metallic gold on a transparent vinyl backing.  This is a 4 inch decal that also looks great on your car's window and complements the Commissioned Corps window strip.  In addition, it could be used on notebooks or displayed on other items.
