I hate to sound ignorant, but our local assn. hasn't mentioned flag patches one way or the other. I remember the federation rule that they should be 2" x 3", but which sleeve and where do you guys get them? Officials Choice?

This might depend on where you live. In my state we have to wear a state patch on our left shoulder. So we are instructed to wear our flag patch on the right shoulder (not required). I think the right shoulder is a common place to put the flag, but it is possible that you have to wear other patches on that shoulder and you might be instructed to do something else. I have seen flag patches on the right chest pocket area (mainly football officials) and put on the back near the neck area. I am sure there is a standard where you live, just ask around.
