i was thinking of that, but i feel that is more military looking. Like i look of badge holder, the one that pins to your uniform, that holds the badge and your awards. Anybody, or any of explorers have any pics of these?But thanks for the advice!

Personally, I wouldn't wear all of them. I'd pick the one which means the most to me and wear it. Or rotate them, one at a time.
Unless you're military or NYPD (officer), I wouldn't wear them all.

Well than your mom or dad should be able to help you then. Honestly I think it is dumb to wear an accommodation on a work uniform, they should only be worn on dress uniforms. Hell the only reason I ever wore any of mine were on my class A's and that's because it was regulation and all of my awards were earned in combat.
I only wore the LFL Red/Blue one, directly above my nameplate.
