No, all three must be sewn on, or velcro on, no in between. Advice, I waited until I was a PFC, I then sewn on the tapes and rank of one top, but waited until I was a specialist to sew the other three uniforms I had. It isn't much of an expense, but if I were you, I would wait, time will fly by and you will be a specialist before you know it.

All or nothing private. I would have one uniform with just Velcro so when its time for promotion you can use that uniform. Now badges are a different story when it comes to sew or Velcro.

Why sure lil snowflake, in fact if you don't wear you rank, I bet your Chain of Command will insure you will be a PV1 till you ETS.
