She floated it off to the side with a little more care than the raggedy khaki cape.  The next item was a dark blue shirt, also sliced up the sides and along the arms.  There were patches sewn on both withers and under the barrel.  Unlike the applique she often put on clothing, these were very intricately embroidered.  On one side was a red-and-white striped rectangle with a smaller white-dotted blue rectangle in one corner.  The other design was far more complicated, having a pair of crossed anchors behind a shield.  It reminded her of a coat-of-arms. Around the edges were what looked almost like writing—it wasn’t a geometric pattern, but it was kind of regular.  The patches over the barrel had the same kind of pattern, although the order was different.  Two gold pins adorned the lapels.
