Embracing the city's notorious history of nearly 80 years ago, the Roswell, New Mexico Police Department has unveiled their new uniform patch design.
This isn't the first time the city has incorporated the "Roswell Incident" in their city services. Their garbage trucks have flying saucer and alien imagery as shown below.

WHEC reported:
Famous for being the spot where a spacecraft purportedly crashed in 1947, Roswell, New Mexico, has become a mecca for people fascinated by extraterrestrial phenomenon. So it’s only fitting that the city’s police force has uniform patches that are out of this world.
Unveiled on Friday, the new patches feature the official city logo of a flying saucer with a classic beam radiating downward to form the letter “R.” The words “Protect and Serve Those That Land Here” form a circle and are separated by two tiny alien faces with large eyes.
Police Chief Lance Bateman said the department recently ordered an initial batch of 500, with the first ones being handed out just this week. The transition to the new patch is expected to be complete later this year.
