I'm not a big collector or trader, but I have to admit I think it's neat seeing the different styles of police patches from state to state and city to city.

While doing a little late night surfing I came across the following web address:

http://www.calea.org/agcysearch/agencysearch.cfm

It is for the CALEA law enforcement accrediting organization. I have seen more and more departments seeking this accreditation. Although I know little about it, I do know that most agencies that are accredited have let this website scan a copy of their patch. I ran through a few different departments just to see what they wear.

Maybe this has been posted before, but I thought I would share it as it seemed kind of neat.
