Can you wear a necklace in Army uniform?
Quick Answer
Yes, but it must not be visible. Necklaces must be worn under the uniform and cannot show.
Necklaces are authorized per AR 670-1, para 3-4, with one important restriction: they must not be visible when wearing the uniform.
This means:
- The necklace must be worn inside the shirt or blouse
- No chain or pendant should be visible at the collar line
- Dog tags/ID tags have their own specific wear requirements and are separate from jewelry rules
