  i was referring to the formation patch, not the vocation patch.
  
  anyway vocation patch is so small it can hardly be seen.

  Yeah.. im refering to the same thing. the bigger patch you sew on the sleeve. was told to sew it on directly after i sewed the velcro. in the end had to remove the velcro and sew again. waste my time and money.

  Because in theory they are Army personnel in Navy/Air Force's command.

  Actually, there are 2 kinds of people in Navy/Air Force command i.e.
  1) Pure Airmen/Sailors - ADA personnel, Sailors, Divers, Pilots etc...
  2) Army vocationalists - FDS personnel, RPs, medics
  
  Pure airmen and sailors have their own set of Airforce & Navy vocation badges which they wear like skills badges on their chests (usually on No. 3 uniforms). However, I've only seen ADA personnel stitch the RSAF ADA vocation badge on their No. 4. I wonder if RSAF & RSN will change their badges to conform with Army?

  ah that one.
  
  Nope, it's for OIF deployment. Aircrew wore basic tan coveralls, support elements wore desert BDU.
  
  Ex. Forging Sabre was carried out in California in our normal no.4. But I guess the sand would have mixed into it very well.
