We are making custom patches for this event. These will be a pre-order and will be shipped to you 2-3 weeks after the event ends on Oct 4th.
The proceeds will be given directly to support the families of these fallen warriors and other service members that were severely injured by this bombing. We are working through the Recon & Sniper Foundation to continue to support our communities. Together we can help carry the burden for those who have lost so much already.
