Where should the silver name tag be centered on the service coat?

• A. Centered on the right side of the service coat
• B. Centered on the left side of the service coat
• C. Centered on the back of the service coat
• D. Centered at the bottom of the pocket

Answer: (A)

The name tag belongs on the right side of the service coat, centered horizontally over the right breast area (typically about one inch above the pocket seam). This placement keeps the tag readable at a quick glance and ensures a uniform look across wearers. The left side is usually reserved for other insignia or decorations, so putting the name tag there would disrupt symmetry and readability. Placing it on the back or at the bottom of a pocket would make it hard to see and does not align with standard dress regulations.
