apulet

Apulet değil apolet olduğunu düşünüyorum.
Example sentence:

Today, epaulettes have mostly been replaced by a five-sided flap of cloth called a shoulder strap, which is sewn into the shoulder seam and the end buttoned like an epaulette.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.
