How are marksmanship badges worn on the female Class A uniform?

• A. Marksmanship badges are worn on the left side, 1/4 inch below the bottom ribbon row.
• B. Marksmanship badges are worn on the left pocket.
• C. Marksmanship badges are worn on the left side, 1/4 inch below the bottom ribbon row, or in a similar location if ribbons are not worn.
• D. Marksmanship badges are worn on the left hip.

Answer: (C)

The placement is about keeping breast insignia in a consistent, balanced line on the left side of the Class A uniform. The marksmanship badge sits 1/4 inch below the bottom row of ribbons when ribbons are worn, so it aligns neatly with the other devices and maintains the uniform’s symmetry. If ribbons aren’t worn, it’s placed in a similar location—the same vertical level relative to the left chest area—so the overall look stays balanced. Worn on the left pocket or the left hip would disrupt the established arrangement, which is why those locations aren’t used.
