Skill Badges: Worn in order of precedence by group. There is no precedence for combat /skill badges within the same group. Badges are worn one above the other, centered above the U.S. Army tape, in order of group precedence, from top to bottom and from the wearer’s right to left. Badges may all be either sew-on or pin-on. Soldiers may only wear badges in a deployed environment if sewn on. Up to 5 are authorized for wear above the U.S. Army tape so long as space allows for the badges on the individual’s uniform. How Worn
