“Garita Borikén — BCQ” Puerto Rico Embroidered Patch — 4″ or 8″

“Garita Borikén — BCQ” Puerto Rico Embroidered Patch — 4″ or 8″

Carry the fortress spirit of Old San Juan. This bold patch features the silhouette of “La Garita del Morro” filled with the Puerto Rican flag, with a Taíno male warrior—war stripes across his face—at the flag’s edge, gazing east. The word “Borikén” crowns the top-right, and the numerals 2 • 3 • 17 nod to a hidden cipher (B = 2, C = 3, Q = 17 → “BCQ”).
