Check DA PAM 670-1, 4-8, Page 7.

“Soldiers may wear pin-on badges with sewn-on nametape, U.S. Army tape, and grade insignia. Soldiers are not authorized to wear pinned-on badges in a field or deployed environment.”

And your PC doesn’t have to be sewn-on just because your uniform is:

“If a nametape, U.S. Army tape or grade insignia is sewn on, then personnel must sew all three of these items on the uniform coat. This requirement does not apply to the patrol cap.”

I’ll have a yellow sugar free Rip-It and a can of Copenhagen mint long cut with popcorn while all the disgruntled SNCOs tell me how “trashy” being in regs looks.
