What is considered a proper way to display unit awards on the uniform?

The proper way to display unit awards on the uniform is to have them centered above the left pocket. This placement ensures that the awards are prominently and respectfully shown, as this area is designated for medals and unit awards according to Army regulations. Centering the awards above the pocket allows them to be easily visible and signifies the pride associated with the unit’s accomplishments.

The left side of the uniform is traditionally reserved for representing the soldier’s unit along with any awards and decorations, while the right side is typically meant for personal decorations. This arrangement also aligns with the military’s emphasis on hierarchy and proper representation of service.
