BERKELEY COUNTY – The Berkeley County Sheriffโ€™s Office recently upgraded its uniform look with a color change.

Deputies are now wearing green-colored uniforms with a new patch design as opposed to the previous blue uniforms.

Sheriffโ€™s deputies proposed the new uniform design back in May 2020. The uniform color change will allow citizens to easily identify Sheriffโ€™s Office personnel and allow deputies to stand-out from other agencies.

โ€œWe want to be seen in everything that we do.โ€ Berkeley County Sheriff Duane Lewis said. โ€œThere are many times where the sheriffโ€™s office and our municipal partners are on scene together on a call and our citizens may be confused about which agency a law enforcement officer represents. With the new uniform reveal, it will make it clear to our community who we are.โ€

The new sheriffโ€™s office patch features the Berkeley County Sheriffโ€™s Office badge between an American flag and the South Carolina state flag on a black background with gold lettering and outlining.
