Field notes

The archive records individual patches with identifiers, locations, registration dates, and quantities, and can be viewed either as a catalog or as a collection book. Its current inventory spans five designs and seven patches from four countries, including entries from Fayetteville, Costa Rica, Canada, and Baghdad. Two Costa Rica records are explicitly marked for exchange, giving the collection a practical community function beyond display.
