ABSTRACT:
Military organizations typically have exacting rules relating to the positioning of insignia on the uniforms of their personnel. Inasmuch as the rules are typically exacting, manual efforts to properly position the insignia are at best difficult. Aids have been developed to assist the personnel in the positioning of uniform insignia. However, known aids tend to be difficult to operate or tend to be expensive. My improved template for positioning insignia on a military uniform includes a center line marked thereon; none, one or more than one edge positioning guidelines marked thereon; one or more horizontal positioning lines marked thereon; and one or more longitudinal, horizontal slots therein. The center line and/or edge positioning guidelines are for aligning the template substantially parallel with respect to the uniform neckline. The horizontal positioning lines are for positioning the upper and lower edges of the respective insignia respective predetermined distances below and above a stud, the stud disposed to be in the plane of the center line and to be protruding above and below the otherwise flat surfaced template. The slots are adapted for receiving the spikes typically protruding from the rear of the insignia to be positioned and are adapted for slidably removing the template when the insignia is positioned.
