Comrades, I'm not sure about ordering a patch because I don't know if it'll fit in with <camo>
Fret not, dear totally-not-made-up Comrade!
As you can clearly see below, it works just fine with lots of colours and camo's.

Just bought 2!

Anyone know if it will be easy enough to attach to my beret?

*Alex starts sewing more velcro onto his gear

I'm not sure what sewing things onto a beret is like, but my standard method of attaching patches is to sew the loop side onto my jacket, bag, ect. and attach the hook side to the patch (unless it's already included, which judging by comrade IceRaisers images, it is.).

Use heavy duty thread and try to find velcro and thread that matches your gear. to keep things in place while sewing, I like to use a piece of double sided tape rather than a pin that I'll more than likely impale myself on.

They do not have velcro backing.

A lot, since it's my issued field jacket :jihad:

If you want to attach the patch without glue/magic you'll have to add velcro yourself, as Tigershark stated.
Thin, black, threading on black velcro will do just fine.

I haven't had time to sew the patches on yet, but here's a carefully prepared simulation of the end result.
The test run badge is going on the Polish breadbag that serves as my current man-purse:

And the new patch will end up on the Austrian M75 field jacket that gets worn when it's not warm and sunny outside:
