Patches are used within OCESS to signify rank, role, and mission experience.
Types of Patches
Mission Patches
Each mission has its own identifying patch. These patches are designed by members and usually made into embroidered (or other material) patches that can be sewn or ironed onto the flightsuits of OCESS members involved in that year's mission. Copies of each year's mission patch are kept in a glass case in the office, though several patches are missing.
Mission patches are also occasionally referred to as Mission Badges.
Rank Patches
The Mission Commander wears the Command Patch, shown below, on the left. The Subcommander wears a gold, winged pin that bears the words 'Mission Commander'. They may wear these patches year round, not just for the duration of the mission.
Role Patches
The pilot wears the Pilot Patch, shown below, on the right. Like the command patches, he or she may wear the patch all year, not just for the duration of the mission.
