Funny you should mention the neck chain............I have two badges. One is for my uniforms and the other one is on a chain that I wear around my neck when I carry off duty or when I'm attending training and I'm wearing street clothes. Believe it or not the current thinking now for off duty cops and detectives is to have the badge on a neck chain.......again. Off duty cops who have been shot by on duty cops responding to a situation that has "gone south" have been found (in most cases) to have the badge on their belt or in a wallet (that they may or may not have been displaying). Research now shows that the neck chain makes the badge more visible and decreases the chance of friendly fire. So I guess our ancestors knew better.
