><strong>CH</strong>5 b. Anodized breast insignia will be worn on all evening dress and dress<br />
uniforms. Either anodized or oxidized breast insignia may be worn at the<br />
individual’s option on the service uniforms, but mixing of anodized and<br />
oxidized breast insignia is not authorized. When breast insignia are worn on<br />
the utility uniform, shiny or oxidized/antique breast insignia will be worn,<br />
with the exception that subdued brown or black breast insignia may be<br />
prescribed in a field environment in lieu of oxidized breast insignia.<br />
MARADMIN 322/05<br />
><strong>CH</strong> 5 c. When worn on the dress coat, service coat, khaki shirt, or<br />
maternity tunic, the insignia will be placed with wings horizontal and<br />
parallel to the top of the breast pockets (if any). On women's coats and<br />
combat utility uniform coats with slanted pockets, a horizontal line tangent<br />
to the highest point of the pocket (or top corner of the service tape in the<br />
case of the combat utility uniform coat) is considered the top of the pocket<br />
(see figure 4-15).<br />
(1) When worn alone, the insignia will be worn in the same position a<br />
single ribbon would be worn.<br />
><strong>CH</strong> 5 (2) When worn with medals, ribbons, or marksmanship badges, the bottom<br />
of the insignia will be centered 1/8 inch above the top row of such awards.<br />
When successively decreasing rows of ribbon bars are worn (as in subparagraph<br />
5301.5), and the top row of ribbons is such that centering the insignia<br />
presents an unsatisfactory appearance, the insignia may be centered between<br />
the outer edge of the coat lapel and the left edge of the vertically aligned<br />
ribbon rows.<br />
d. When worn on male officers' evening dress jacket, the miniature<br />
insignia will be placed on the left-front panel on a line 1/8 inch above the<br />
second blind buttonhole, and spaced midway between the inner edge and leftarmhole<br />
seam.<br />
e. When worn on evening dress jackets with lapels, the miniature insignia<br />
will be centered 1/8 inch above the miniature medals, or if no medals are<br />
authorized, the miniature insignia will be centered on the lapel at the<br />
position prescribed for the top of the medal bar.<br />
f. Other U.S. service pilot/navigator insignia or foreign pilot insignia<br />
earned while the individual was a member of the foreign or other U.S. service<br />
may be worn provided the insignia is a duly authorized qualification<br />
insignia. These insignia may be worn on the right breast, in the same manner<br />
as Navy/Marine Corps insignia are worn on the left breast, without specific<br />
CMC authorization.<br />
g. Other U.S. service pilot insignia earned as a Marine while undergoing<br />
training leading to qualification for the naval aviation insignia will be<br />
worn on the left breast as prescribed above, until qualified and authorized<br />
to wear the naval aviator insignia, at which time the other service insignia<br />
will no longer be worn.<br />
h. When two Navy/Marine Corps aviation insignia are worn at a time, the<br />
senior insignia will be worn 1/8 inch above the other as follows (from top to<br />
