Picked this patch up only recently. OD green background with a medical design in white, red, and black embroidery over Afghan National flag formed in the shape of a stretcher. The medic device is reminiscent of the US Expert Field Medical Badge. It is black velcro backed. Although made in-theatre, I am unsure if this is an official insignia or not but found it interesting none the less. If anyone here can provide insight it would be most appreciated .....
