Can warfare devices be worn on the uniform?
Yes, but the rules for NWU are slightly different compared with other uniforms. You can wear a maximum of two warfare or qualification devices, one over the U.S. Navy tape over the left pocket and the second on the pocket flap. But for command master and senior chiefs — as well as force and fleet master chiefs — command career counselors, recruit division commanders and security or law enforcement sailors such as master-at-arms, the rules are different. These sailors, if they have dual warfare quals, will wear them stacked above the name tape, while the identification badge is worn on the pocket flap. The command at sea or shore insignia can be metal or embroidered on a strip of NWU fabric and is worn above the right pocket, centered above the nametape.
