Officially Licensed USMC EGA from WWI Patch

Officially Licensed USMC EGA from WWI Patch — Marine Corps Eagle, Globe, and Anchor World War I Embroidered Patch

The original emblem of valor — the EGA as it appeared in the Great War.

The Eagle, Globe, and Anchor (EGA) is the most sacred symbol of the United States Marine Corps, representing the Marines' commitment to defending the nation in every clime and place. This World War I variant of the EGA captures the emblem as it appeared during the Great War, when Marines earned their legendary reputation on the battlefields of France. The EGA has evolved in design over the centuries, and the WWI-era version holds special historical significance as the emblem worn by the Marines who fought at Belleau Wood, Soissons, Blanc Mont, and the Meuse-Argonne Offensive.

During World War I, the Marines of the 4th Marine Brigade earned the immortal nickname "Devil Dogs" from their German adversaries, who were stunned by the ferocity and tenacity of Marine attacks. The WWI-era EGA represents that transformative period when the Marine Corps evolved from a small naval security force into a premier fighting organization with a global reputation for battlefield excellence. This historically accurate embroidered patch honors the Marines who wore this emblem into the trenches of France and forever changed the identity of the Corps.

Perfect For: Marine Corps history enthusiasts, WWI historians, EGA variant collectors, Belleau Wood and Devil Dog fans, USMC heritage patch collectors, and every Marine who takes pride in the Corps' storied origins on the Western Front.

Devil Dogs since 1918 — the EGA endures.
