• MCO P1020.24G (CH 5) CH 1 8. On women's coats with horizontal pockets, ribbons will be worn as prescribed above. On women's coats with slanted upper pockets, a horizontal line tangent to the highest point of the pocket will be considered the top of the pocket. On women's khaki shirts and coats without the faux pocket, ribbon bars will be placed even with or up to 2 inches above the first visible button and centered so that they are in about the same position as when worn on the coat. On the maternity tunic, ribbon bars will be placed so that they are in about the same position as when worn on the service coats. On the khaki maternity shirt, when worn as an outer garment, ribbon bars will be worn in the same manner as on the standard khaki shirt, except they will be placed 1/2 to 1 inch above the horizontal yoke seam stitching and may be adjusted to the individual to present a military appearance.

• The Ribbons must be centered over left breast pocket first, then line up the left edge of your rifle badge with the left edge of your ribbons. (as your looking at them) Then line up the right edge of your pistol badge on the right edge of your ribbons. The Rifle badge should be 1/8 " above the pocket, the pistol badge should be 1/8 " below the ribbons. If you only have a rifle badge it become centered on the pocket. If you're salty and have 4 ribbons on your bottom row you put 3/4 " between your rifle and pistol badge centered on the left breast pocket. If you're a boot and don't have 3 on the bottom yet but same applies, center the badges on the pocket with 3/4 of and inch between them.
