Does anyone know the exact measurements on placement of the rifle qual badge and pistol qual badge on the Service A, B, and C uniforms? I've been looking online and I found:

When two badges are worn, they are symmetrically placed on a line with about 3/4 inch space between holding bars (may be reduced to 1/4 inch for women to ensure proper alignment with the ribbons and the edges of the pocket), but in no case will they span more than 4 1/4 inches.

Since I only have one ribbon, when I do this on the service A, it appears off center because the rifle qual badge is longer than the pistol badge. I have about 1/2'' on both sides from edge of pocket and about 3/4'' in between. However, the ribbon appears off center since the badges do not appear symmetric with the ribbon. Is this okay or am I doing something wrong?

Use the button as a central dividing point. Treat each half seperately and center each badge in its own half. When you get 3 wide ribbons..... you will .. use the outer edge of the ribbon bar as a guide to line up with the outer edge of the shooting badges.
