The shoulder patch of the Brownstown, Michigan, Police Department.

The recently redesigned patch of the Brownstown, Michigan, Police Department (BPD) reflects both a reverence for the past and a vision for the future. In the center is the township’s emblem, which features a prominent “B” and three frames above it. Within the frames are a gear, honoring the area’s industrial and agricultural heritage; a home, emphasizing the community’s dedication to family values; and a duck, highlighting Brownstown’s vibrant hunting and fishing culture. The thin blue line across the patch signifies the unwavering commitment of BPD officers in safeguarding the community.
