In blues, which two items are worn together as part of the uniform?

• A. AAS rank pin and fourragère.
• B. AAS ribbon and fourragère.
• C. Rank pin and ribbon.
• D. Ribbon and cap.

Answer: (A)

In blues, you wear two insignia together to show membership and rank: the AAS rank pin and the fourragère. The fourragère is the distinctive shoulder cord that marks active Arnold Air Society membership, typically worn on the left shoulder. The rank pin is a small emblem that indicates your position within the organization, worn on the lapel near the heart. Together they communicate both who you belong to and what role you hold, which is why this pairing is the standard. The other items either belong to different parts of the uniform or aren’t paired in this way for the blues look.
