I need the regulation for sewing on the E-1 cadeuce for my sailor while he is home this weekend - where can I find the regulation that tells me where to sew this patch on?

HELP!!

Thanks bunches

Dee Dee,

Why isn't he getting it done himself at the train station?? HE needs to take it there and see if they can do a rush on them to be done on Friday after grad you can sweep by and pick them up.

He should have done this a last week???

I will get you the reg though.. I will put the uniform regs on the site..

Well now we are talking about a new sailor who has no idea how long it takes to get stuff like that done - he did take his uniform to get cleaned and told them to put the patch on but apparently they either didn't hear him or didn't get the order.

Thanks for getting the reg posted - I'm sure others will use it too.

It is helpful to get some sewing tape to tap it down first (the kind that dissolves with the first washing). Helps to keep it in place when you are sewing.

:) I sew all my own patches and you can save a lot of money doing it yourself. Most times it will look better when you do them anyway.

Thanks for the link - I did manage to find them and download for future use - I will be sewing on this batch but after this he is on his own and believe me he will be better off if he pays to have them sewn on in the future HA HA

Well, sewed his patches on his blues yesterday and they look mighty fine if I do say so myself (and I DO) HA HA
Told him to have the ones on his whites done at Lejeune sometime between now and the time they start wearing them.
Can't believe he is a Corpsman now - WOW the time sure flew since he went to boot camp back in Sept. Anyway thanks for the links - they sure came in handy for putting his caduceus on.
Have a great nite - see you in chat later this evening
