Its a long drive for me to get to a clothing and sales, is there a place that sells ACUs with the tapes and rank already sewn on? I know the AAFES website sells ready-to-wear ACUs but its unclear to me whether they sew on the tapes or if they come as velcro. I forget the name of the website that will sell you sewn on ACU's. Otherwise you need to go to clothing and sales/alterations and get it done if a local tailor shop is unable to do it for you. |

Order the sew ons and find a local tailor who will do it is probably your best bet.
Worth every penny. Not having to deal with the ugly velco tapes and pin on badges is worth it. |

I'm new to the Guard after coming over from the Marine Corps. I can't stand the velcro nametapes. I'll be taking my ACU's to my tailor to have the nametapes sewn on. |

USA Military Medals sells ACUs and will do the sewing. Kinda spendy - It was a little over 80 bucks to get a blouse with name, service, rank and a single badge, but it was done right and it shipped within 36 hours.
Get one done that way and wait till you're by a real base with real sew shops for the rest is what I'd advise. |

If you have a buddy with name tapes already sewn on you could borrow a top from him and bring that to a local tailor/dry cleaner as a template.

They were saying it, at least as far back as the early '90s.
