Where is the rank located on the Garrison Cap?

The rank on the Garrison Cap is positioned in a specific manner that is standardized across the Navy uniforms. The correct positioning is both 1 and 1/2 inches above the bottom edge of the cap and 2 inches from the fore crease.

This dual measurement ensures that the rank insignia is displayed prominently yet uniformly across all caps worn by personnel. The 1 and 1/2 inches above the bottom edge provides vertical consistency, while the 2 inches from the fore crease ensures that the insignia is aligned correctly relative to the front of the cap. Adhering to these standards facilitates uniformity in dress, which is essential for maintaining a disciplined military appearance within the NJROTC program.
