Q: Hello Mike,
I have acquired an OA region patch and I was wondering if it could be worn on my field uniform (class A)? If so, where would it go? Thank you.

A: Ellis,
Thank you for your question. An OA region patch is considered a temporary emblem and can only be worn on the right uniform pocket below the lodge flap. There are many temporary patches that can be worn in this same uniform position so you’ll have to decide which one to wear.
I hope this helps! Thanks for doing what you do!
Best,
Mike
