How far below the shoulder seam is the top edge of the NJROTC patch worn?

The NJROTC patch is designed to be worn with a specific level of uniformity among cadets. The correct placement is 1 inch below the shoulder seam. This placement ensures that all cadets display their patches in a consistent manner, which reflects discipline and attention to detail—a core aspect of military training and professionalism. Adhering to this standard helps maintain a neat and cohesive appearance within the uniform, which is essential in fostering unity and pride within the NJROTC program.
