Don't quote me, but IMHO, right lapel 2 inches below the notch.
I'm citing this without the benefit of scrolling through a gazillion pages of the Uniform Manual. It would make sense, since the mini medals start at 2 inches below the notch on the left lapel.
Anyone else have it chapter and verse?
I found this:
quote:
The full-size badge is worn on Full Dress, Service Dress, Winter Dress and Tropical Blue uniforms. The miniature version is worn on the Formal Dress and all Dinner Dress uniforms. Post-assignment, the miniature badge is worn on the Formal Dress, all Dinner Dress, Service Dress, Tropical Blue and Winter Dress uniforms. Officers may wear previously earned Silver or Gold Badges. Only one CMC Badge (Gold or Silver) may be worn at any given time. A currently serving CMC may wear a previously earned RFMC badge and a currently serving RMFC may wear a previously earned CMC badge. As a reminder, only two special service or identification badges (current and past) may be worn on most Coast Guard uniforms at one time; incumbent gold and silver badges command chiefs are authorized to wear their current embroidered badge on the ODU.
Originally posted by rbrayman: just looked it up the other day; a previously FULL TIME CMC/CSC/CC can wear the miniature device now.
To elaborate on that, that is pretty much only the Sector and above folks. Unless your billet title was "Command Chief" and your were selected by EPM, through a screening process to a Non Rating Specific billet, then you were not a 'full time' CMC/CSC/CC.
