To eliminate future confusion, he issued diamond shaped badges of cloth, known as \"Kearny Patches,\" to be worn on the crown pieces of the caps of the soldiers."}, {"label": "Description", "content": "The necessity of identifying corps, division, and brigades on the battlefield soon led to a requirement that all corps in the Union Army be represented with a designating badge.
