How will service ribbons be worn on the male Class A uniform?

• A. The ribbon is centered 1/8 inch above the left breast pocket; ribbon mounts will remain centered above the pocket even if the top ribbon row is offset.
• B. The ribbon is centered on the left chest, with the top row aligned to the nameplate.
• C. The ribbons are worn on the right side of the chest.
• D. Ribbons are worn on the sleeve.

Answer: (A)

Ribbons on the male Class A uniform are worn on the left chest, centered over the pocket, with a consistent gap of 1/8 inch above the left breast pocket. This anchoring to the pocket center keeps the ribbon rack symmetrical across the chest, even if the top row ends up offset for visual balance or due to other insignia nearby. That’s why the correct approach is to center the ribbons above the pocket at that fixed distance. Ribbons are not worn on the right side or on the sleeve.
