How to use / When it’s useful

Attach the crowns via the screw posts to the shoulder board so the crown sits transversely and aligned with uniform guidelines. The crowns are finished to match the formal appearance of officer insignia and are used where official rank display is required.

Quick answer: place the crown 5 mm from the outer edge of the shoulder board, with the appropriate number of silver-colored stars positioned above it. In most cases: stars are set 10 mm from the crown’s top edge (measured from the star center) and 20 mm apart when more than one star is used.
