In addition to the rank insignia embroidered on shoulder straps worn on the blue Army Service Uniform (ASU) and the nonsubdued metal insignia worn on the shoulder loops of the Army Green Service Uniform (AGSU), Chief Warrant Officers 4 (CW4) also wear nonsubdued metal insignia on the Garrison Cap (worn with the AGSU) and on berets, either the standard Black Beret or one of the colored organizational issue items for members of Airborne, Ranger, Special Forces, or Security Force Assistance units. The insignia is worn on the left curtain of the AGSU Garrison Gap, oriented and centered vertically and placed one inch from the cap's front crease. On berets, the insignia is oriented vertically and centered on the beret flash.
This nonsubdued, pin-on metal CW4 rank insignia was also worn on the old Garrison Cap as part of the original Green Army Service Uniform worn from 1956 to 2015; the cap began to be phased out of wear when Black Berets were introduced in 2001. Veterans searching for those Garrison Caps from years gone by will be happy to learn that we still manufacture and stock all four varieties (Enlisted, Officer, Warrant Officer, and General) of this instantly recognizable component of the "classic" Army Green Service uniform—visit our
Army Hats page and you'll find them located at the top of the page.
