<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>It wasn't NOT authorized before either. The previous ALARACT authorized nametapes to be sewn on to the ACU uniform. PC caps are a component of that uniform.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I have been wearing sewn on name tapes and ranks for three years. That was because, my former PLT SGT wore the uniforms like that. I never knew it wasn't authorized by the regulation. Thank you!
