I was just wondering for those of you on this site who wear body armor, how do you wear it? Do you wear the concealable kind that goes underneath your shirt, or do you wear it in an external carrier? I, similar to local patrol officers around here, wear my vest on the outside; I have several patches sewn on it, including a security patch on the back, my name on the right breast and a badge patch over the left breast. I tried wearing a concealable vest at first, but it was too hot and I was barely able to move around in it. On the plus side, I do like that ever since I began wearing my vest on the outside, people are constantly mistaking me for a police officer.
