Sure, morale patches are intended to entertain, but as art. The Tangram from Maxpedition on the other hand, can entertain because you can reconfigure its 7 Hook-backed geometric pieces into a variety of shapes. I guess you could call it the first modular morale patch.
For example, you could make a cat. But the variations or myriad.

Made from PVC rubber and offered in Arid or SWAT colors.
The latest issue of INto Art magazine profiles the Veteran recovery group Elder Heart. The group promotes healing through occupational therapy in the form of art. I was recently introduced to the program by Tom Spooner who supports the program along with his brother Scot along with fellow SOF Veteran Magnus Johnson.
