Chief petty officer (CPO) command identification badges are special United States Navy and United States Coast Guard badges which are issued to the most senior chief petty officer in a given U.S. Navy or U.S. Coast Guard command. The command may either be a shore or surface unit.〔(U.S. Navy Uniform Regulation, Chapter 5, Section 5101, Identification Badges ), last updated 22 August 2012, last accessed 2 January 2013〕〔(U.S. Coast Guard COMDTINST M1020.6H ); dated April 2013; last accessed 29 September 2013〕 CPO command identification badges are worn on the lower left pocket of a Navy and Coast Guard uniform. Navy CPO identifications are considered temporary identification badges only and are surrendered at the termination of the assignment for which they are held. Coast Guard CPO command identification badges are permanent awards. However, if a CPO is not currently filling a billet defined by the CPO identification badge they have earned, it is worn on the lower right pocket of the Coast Guard uniform.〔〔 ==United States Navy== The appearance of the CPO command identification badge is determined by the rank of its holder and the level of the command in which they serve. At the single command level, the badge is issued with word “Command” on its face with a chief petty officer anchor showing the fouled anchor insignia of the bearer. E-7 CPOs display the anchor, senior chief petty officers the anchor with star and master chief petty officers the anchor with two stars.〔 At higher Navy commands, the designation of “Fleet” and “Force” is displayed instead of “Command” indicating the senior enlisted member of an entire Navy fleet or task force. Holders of this badge are always command master chief petty officers.〔 The highest CPO identification badge of all is the Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy badge held solely by the Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「CPO command identification badge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
