Some Boy Scouts of America councils sell a special council shoulder patch for Eagle Scouts. The council shoulder patch is worn in the top position on the left shoulder.
44th Home Counties Division saw active service in France and was then sent to the Middle East. It was disbanded after the battle of El Alamein where it fought in the Southern sector of the front line. The British used shoulder patches to designate Divisions. Then they would use small colored flashes for brigades or branch, such as artillery. Some wore an arc patch above the Divisional patch with the Regiment's name. So a British uniform could have 2 or 3 or even 4 colored patches on the sleeve. Most divisional formational patches were square or round and had some image in the center. I did not know of any that was a solid color or oval in shape. But I found it in my reference book. Note: The Canadian Divisions wore a solid patch in the shape of a rectangle. The 1st Canadian Division wore a maroon patch. Just for a comparison. The other divisions wore patches of light blue and red and one other color. Reference: "Army Badges and Insignia of WW2" by Guido Rosignoli.
For US Army only (Vietnam War era): If you've been in combat with a particular division, you may wear the shoulder patch on your RIGHT shoulder (some men referred to this as a "combat patch"). The left shoulder reflects your current division. If you've never been in combat with that particular division and had worn that division patch on your left shoulder for 20 years (as an example), when you leave that particular division...you may NOT wear the patch on your right shoulder.
The ace of spades means that the person with the tattoo(or more commonly patch on their leathers) will fight to the death in defence of their club. A friendly word of warning... Believe it when you see it.

On the left shoulder, that is the current unit patch, on the right shoulder it would be a combat unit patch. Also there are tabs that can go above the patches if qualified to wear them. Ie: Ranger, Sapper, Special Forces.
Synyster Gates doesn't have anything on his left shoulder but a guitar strap, however Zacky Vengeance does have a patch. Appears to be other than military, however.
