epaulette


Explanation:
From Wikipedia:
"Epaulettes are a type of ornamental shoulder piece or decoration used as insignia or rank by the military and other organizations. Colloquially, the word has also come to refer to some types of shoulder strap."

From YourDictionary.com (http://www.yourdictionary.com/epaulette):
1. a shoulder ornament for certain uniforms, esp. military uniforms
2. an ornamental strip or tab on the shoulder of a coat, dress, etc.

Apulet değil apolet olduğunu düşünüyorum.

Example sentence(s):
  • Today, epaulettes have mostly been replaced by a five-sided flap of cloth called a shoulder strap, which is sewn into the shoulder seam and the end buttoned like an epaulette.
  • Captains with less than three years seniority wore only one epaulette on the right shoulder.
