Current U.S. Military personnel wear a nametape or nameplate just above the right breast pocket when wearing dress or battle dress uniforms. This does not follow suit for U.S. Military aviators, who are typically seen in a one piece flightsuit. Aviators wear a leather or cloth patch just above their left breast. These are generally velcro backed to allow easy removal.

Awards, badges, ribbons, tabs, and other decorations depend on the specific item for uniform placement. See related links for copy of AR 600-8-22.
