Is this like the 'Purple heart" for motorcycle crashers? there will be people crashing on purpose so they can sew on a patch...

I wear mine wherever I want to wear it. There are no freaking rules on this stuff. Who would be in charge of making the rules and enforcing them?

...it’s in the forum rules ...’nobody can wear a broken wing patch without special permission from the moderator. Forum staff has the last word on patch placement, size, color etc..Anyone found to be in Violation of this policy will be given a harsh reprimand. Anyone who continues to wear the patch without approval will receive a permanent ban.’
