Name Tags Pinned on Right

Dear Dr. Dave and Dr. Dee,

My friends and I were having a discussion about where to pin ID or name tags - on the right side or left? I say on the left because that is where you place your hand when you salute the flag. Do you know?

Signed,

Lefty

Dear Lefty,

Actually, your friends who think ID or name tags should go on the right side are correct. The reason for this is because when you shake someone's hand, your eyes will easily and naturally fall on the name tag if on that side.
