What is the correct placement for hash marks on a police uniform?

Answer 1

Hash marks on a police uniform are typically placed on the lower part of the uniform sleeve, usually centered between the elbow and the shoulder. These marks are used to signify years of service in increments of five or ten years. The specific placement can vary slightly depending on the department's uniform regulations, but they are generally positioned in a visible and standardized location for easy recognition and identification.

Answer 2

A hash mark is given for completing a certain number of years of police service. The number of years per mark varies from one department to the next. My agency issues a new hash mark for every four years of service (5 hash marks = 20 years of service). Other standards are one mark per five years and one mark per three years.
