Are name tapes authorized on Army trousers?

I need updated information on if you can have last name sewn onto U.S. Army trousers. I had this done in 2017 for BLC in Kuwait due to our laundry situation. AR 670-1 doesn’t specify so further advice/ guidance would be appreciated.

I believe it is in regs, my old first sergeant did the same thing with his old UCP trousers

Sounds like a great idea! Wish I’d thought of it back in the ‘70s when quartermaster laundry would send me back fatigue pants that were someone else’s! Saved me a lot of time and trouble!
