After looking at the 39-1 I still have questions about the NRA badge placement.  Does anyone know the proper place on both the male and female cadet service jacket (new and old style) and the short sleeve blues shirt?  I don't see it in attachment 4 of the 39-1 either.

Thanks!

Just answered this for one of mine this AM, and yes, it's not even mentioned in Attachment 4.

Female is potentially a lot more "complex" if they have a lot of other badges.

Of course there is no "welt pocket" on the female shirt, so there you go.

It doesn't.

It's awarded at the squadron only, no mention in eServices.

Thank you.
Is there any way in eServices to add certificates like that?
Is there a random stuff file?

The question is clearly answered in CAPR 39-2 states:  "The member's unit of assignment maintains personnel records. Personnel files maintained locally may be traditional paper files or electronic files created at the unit. Normally, the unit personnel officer is responsible for this duty; however, this duty may be delegated to the unit administrative officer, or in the case of active member records, to the professional development officer, at the discretion of the unit commander. Many achievements/training are recorded in the member's online membership record available for review through the eServices section of the CAP website. Units may use this information to
supplement the information maintained in the local file at the unit level. At this time, the eServices online record cannot be used as the only personnel file since all information concerning the member is not currently tracked online. Those items recorded in eServices are not required to be entered in the local personnel file. Any items not recorded in eServices or additional information pertaining to the member's service and performance that should be retained should be made a part of the local personnel records. Regardless of who maintains the personnel file, the professional development officer remains responsible for recording professional development training as prescribed in CAPR 50-17. Note: CAPF 25, Personnel Data Card, which is now obsolete and no longer available may be filed with the CAPF 45 for active members who were in the program prior to development of the Form 45. Previous editions of CAPF 45 may also continue to be used. Do not transcribe information from the older CAPFs 45/45a or 45b just for the sake of updating the newer CAPF45. Personnel files should be protected and remain in the custody of CAP at all times. Members should be granted regular access to their records at reasonable times during normal unit meetings, in addition to such other times as may be agreed to between the member and the record's custodian."  [emphasis added]
