According to AR 670-1 chapter 28-17: Updated 3 February 2005
It would depend on which patch you refer to. "US Army" is positioned centered over the left breast pocket. The soldier's last name is positioned centered over the right breast pocket. The current unit patch is positioned on the right shoulder, 1/4 inch from the American flag that is centered 1/2" from the shoulder seam, corresponding tabs go on top of the patch, and if there is a tab, the unit patch is positioned immediately below and touching that. Combat unit patches are positioned on the left shoulder, likewise to the right side. The new uniforms are already equipped with hook and loop patches to make positioning easier and removal for combat operations easier yet. Rank insignia are now positioned on the button flap, at the center of the chest.
