During the recent Mobile Police parade in Hanoi , many people recognized the blood type symbol on the new uniform of the special forces.
On the left arm of the soldiers, along with the Vietnamese national flag, patches with different symbols such as O, B, A, AB... appeared on the sleeves of the Special Police Force and the National Training Center for Anti-Terrorism. This group of letters is the blood type symbol of each soldier, embroidered on a specialized patch (also known as a patch).
The military blood type patch has a visible design, usually worn on the chest or arm of the uniform. This is the first time that the mobile police force in general and the special forces in particular have been equipped with this patch.
The purpose of these patches is to provide medical staff with important information about a soldier's blood type in case of an emergency when they are injured in combat or lose blood.
At that time, the medical team only needed to look at this patch to immediately choose the appropriate blood type for transfusion, saving the soldier's life without having to go to a medical facility or laboratory.
In addition to military personnel, blood type patches may also be worn by first responders or individuals working in environments with potential emergency medical care risks.
Many netizens praised the new uniform of the special forces soldier as very beautiful, it shows professionalism and concern for the lives of soldiers in the present era.
Previously, on the morning of April 14, the Mobile Police Command held a ceremony to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Mobile Police Force. Attending the ceremony were Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and General To Lam - Minister of Public Security .
