A shoulder mark should not be confused with a (an elaborate shoulder strap), a (a braided type of shoulder board), or an epaulette, although these terms are often used interchangeably. Australia The newer Auscam uniform design lacks shoulder marks, instead opting for a vertical strap in the middle of the chest region of the uniform. Rank insignia tags are slipped onto this strap.
