<strong>MARINE</strong> <strong>CORPS</strong> <strong>UNIFORM</strong> REGULATIONS<br />
(a) The standard size JCS ID badge consists of the United States<br />
shield (upper portion in blue, and 13 stripes of alternating red and white<br />
enamel) superimposed on four gold metal unsheathed swords (two placed<br />
vertically and two diagonally), pointing to the top, with points and pommels<br />
resting on the wreath, blades and grips entwined with a gold metal continuous<br />
scroll surrounding the shield with the word "JOINT" at the top and the words<br />
"<strong>CH</strong>IEFS OF STAFF" at bottom, in blue enamel letters; all within an oval<br />
silver metal wreath of laurel 2-1/4 inches high by 2 inches wide.<br />
(b) The badge may be permanently awarded to any Marine assigned<br />
to the organization of the JCS who serves at least 365 consecutive days after<br />
14 January 1961 and who receives a certificate of eligibility. The JCS, the<br />
operations deputies, and the deputy operations deputies are eligible to wear<br />
the badge immediately upon assumption of tenure. All other assigned<br />
personnel may wear the badge on a temporary basis, for identification<br />
purposes, for the first 365 days of their tours.<br />
(c) Placement of the JCS ID Badge. The standard JCS ID badge<br />
will be worn in the same manner as the OSD ID badge.<br />
(d) The miniature JCS ID badge is reduced in size by one third,<br />
with nine stripes on the shield, but otherwise is identical to the standard<br />
badge. The miniature badge will be worn in the same manner as the miniature<br />
OSD ID badge.<br />
b. Female Marines. The guidance and badge description provided in<br />
subparagraph 4007.2a is germane, only the actual placement of the badges on<br />
the female uniforms differs.<br />
(1) Placement of badges on female uniforms<br />
(a) On women's service and dress coats, badges will be placed on<br />
the left front jacket panel, on a horizontal line midway between the second<br />
and third buttons with a tolerance of 1-1/2 inches. On evening dress<br />
jackets, badges will be centered on the left-front jacket panel so that the<br />
bottom of the badge is slightly higher than the highest button. The<br />
placement of the badge may be adjusted slightly to ensure the proper flat<br />
appearance. On women's khaki shirts, badges will be centered on the right<br />
side, on a horizontal line even with or up to 2 inches above the first<br />
visible button from the top.<br />
(b) Placement of the OSD ID Badge. On women's coats the badge<br />
will be worn on the left in the manner described in subparagraph<br />
4007.2b(1)(a), above; however while on duty with OSD, it will be worn<br />
according to OSD instructions.<br />
(c) The miniature OSD Id badge is a smaller version of the<br />
standard 2-inch diameter badge, which has been reduced in size to 1-1/2<br />
inches in diameter. Only the miniature badge may be worn on the evening<br />
dress, blue dress "C"/"D," and service "B"/"C" uniforms. Placement will be<br />
as follows:<br />
