Shoulder Board
A shoulder mark, also called rank slide, or slip-on, is a flat cloth sleeve worn on the shoulder strap of a uniform. It may bear Military rank, rank or other insignia. A shoulder mark should not be confused with a ''shoulder board'' (which is an elaborate shoulder strap), ''shoulder knot'' (a braided sort of shoulder board) or epaulette, although these terms are often used interchangeably. Australia The newer Auscam uniform design lacks shoulder marks, instead opting for a vertical strap in the middle of the chest region of the uniform. Rank insignia tags are slipped onto this strap. Unlike the older uniform designs, there are slip-ons for every rank in the Australian Defence Force. The older Auscam uniform designs featured shoulder straps, upon which slip-on rank insignia of Commissioned Officer (armed forces), Officers could be affixed, and non-commissioned officers in the Air Force and Navy only. No shoulder-strap slip-ons are available for enlisted members of the army, wher ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
