Yes wear your shoulder marks. You wear them just as any lower ranking person would wear their collar rank in class A's.

Funny how thats your first post.

Oh I see.

Yeah uniform crap sucks, thats why I love the ACU. No sew on crap, starch, or polishing boots just to scuff them up anyway.

yeah the only bad thing with acu's is they dont hold up at all to field use. While I am at it. Just to be sure what else has to be on the 415 shirt when you wear the jacket. I would rather not be jacked up for the 1st sgt inspection if you know what I mean.

Shoulder marks and nameplate should be all.

brad8266 is correct, shoulder marks and name plate, but I just gotta say that I personally hate the ACU's. I actually miss the days of startch and spit. Nothing felt better than slipping into a nice highly startched BDU and some highly shined boots that I could use to shave with! Although I gotta say I dont miss the 40 dollar per week bill to keep my old BDU's in armor startch, so that is a plus.
So you have been recently promoted? Congrats! Welcome to the NCO corps!
