NDP ended, and there will be NO training on next Friday (15.08.2008).

How you should wear your badges on your uniform..
I’m sure that many people now still don’t really know how to wear their badges, so pay attention!

Proficiency badges are to be worn in neat rows with no more than four badges in a row. There is to be no gap between succeeding badges nor between rows of badges. The first row of badges are to be worn one finger breadth below the shoulder flash on the left sleeve.

It should be wear according to their grouping.
Group I are to be worn first, followed by those under Groups II, III and IV, in that order, regardless of the time the badges are gained.
