How to wear the Combat Action Badge on Class A Uniform?
491183
The online version of AR 670-1 does not have it listed.\n\nHowever, from looking around, the CAB is categorized as a Group 1 badge.  Hopefully that helps a little.\n\nI watched a ceremony video...you get to see them place it in this...not sure how clear it is but here you go: \nhttp://www.army.mil/symbols/combatbadges/Action.html?story_id_key=7285

I'm in the Army and I agree with Cecil (LOL). But you chose your branch and now you gotta wear the (faggy) headgear, right. \no Start with a new cover. The old one already knows its bad habits it's time to hang it up.\no Since it's wool you want to shave the fuzzies down to give it a crisp form for forming and make it look better. Use a pack of cheap AAFES brand razors. They nick your face up but they are perfect here. Spread the material and shave EVENLY be careful not to go too thin in places or too deep. Use something smooth and rounded to place underneath to make it firmer. Don't forget to shave the inside too this will make it better to form\no After you shave that puppy. Use a lighter sparingly to get those small places you missed. Then iron it flat on high heat.\no Soak it in water don't just get it wet and put it in on your noggin for shaping. Since its wet it will form better but it will shrink when it dries so you got to stretch the material a little as you go around\no Where you've made creases hit in with the iron again\no After you got it shaped spray hairspray on it. This will lock in the shape you formed. Put a small saftey pin in the flappy part to the brim to make sure it stays that way.\no Let your cover dry over night in the shape. \nAlways fold your head's dust filter the same way when you store it after use

US Military Police wear a BRASSARD while they are on duty:\n\nBrassard: A band or badge worn around the upper arm.\n(Dictionary below)\n\nIt says "MP" and identifies them from a distance. Enlisted MP's can give certain directions to officers; ordinary enlisted men can't. The brassard is easy to see from a distance.

They earned their metals so they should be able to wear them in civilian clothes if they want to.  After you leave the service most are not authorized to wear their uniforms so if they wear the metals that they earned with their civilian clothes, then so be it.

Oh yeah.  Uniforms are uniforms.  Everyone has to dress the same, look the same, think the same, eat the same....you get the picture.  You may get away with contacts, but don't count on that.  After all, where are you going to find a sterile environment to dunk your contacts in saline when out in the jungles of Burma, for instance?

Same as the USAF Uniform.  Lt. bar is sewn on the right collar and the CAP is sewn on the left collar.  Field jackets have the Bars and CAPs on both shoulders.  Blues wear the shoulder epaulets and on the collar wear either the CAPs.  I might have only been a cadet, but I held postions in the squadron in which I had to know the uniform manual.  If in doubt refer to the Uniform Manual for the regulations.

Being an ex-drill sergeant in the military, I would say (assuming you are female), 7 pairs cotton underwear, 7 cotton bras, and not much else.  You will not need any civilian clothing.  They lock up anything "unmilitary" when you get there.  Your recruiter or the people at the MEPPS center should give you a list of things you will need.

You can go to each branch's website, they have pics of graduation day and things like that. Those are dress uniforms, but the officer uniforms are different from elisted, so if you see some differences that's probably why. If you want to email me, i can give you info about AF uniforms. The Navy has about a million different uniforms and I don't know much about them, but I'm pretty knowledgeable about AF insignia. malorie.gutierrez@yahoo.com

Now-a-days It basically differentiates your style as there were no colored uniforms in ancient times. Your uniform was basically your armor sometimes colored to show your clan. What actually started uniforms were Ninja. Not only did black help you hide in the dark / shadows etc but it helped confuse your enemy. If you wear all black including shoes and gloves you could confuse some enemies and they wont see a kick or a punch coming from center line because it was the same color. So if you are in some light weight tournaments and you wear a uniform, make it all the same color. Don't mix white top, black bottom etc. It may be a small insignificant thing but every little thing helps. \nI hope this helps

I owned a few sets because I was in Public Affairs and did many events with and before the media.  My final assignment was as the Public Affairs NCO for Marine Recruiting for Arkansas (and several counties from the surrounding states).  I wore blues or modified blues (khaki short-sleeved shirt and blue trousers) every day.  These uniforms were provided to me (although I invested in extra sets because they really take a beating when worn every day), but for the average Marine, they were not--and they were VERY expensive.  Still, part of the privilege of joining the Corps is to be able to wear that very proud uniform.

Your uniform speech does not have to be limited to school uniforms. Think of the military or the Boy Scouts for example. Uniforms immediately identify an individual as belonging to a particular group. During disasters, this identification is crucial in separating disaster workers, insurance claims specialists, and volunteers, from looters or other undesirables. \n\nUniforms are required for members of a government's military. It helps define the difference between POW's (who are entitled to Geneva Protections) and Enemy Combatants (who do not get Geneva Protections). During Viet Nam, select groups of US Special Forces went into Cambodia and Laos to wage war on the Viet Cong. Since the US was not engaged in a war with those countries, our soldiers had to wear camouflage that did not contain any US marking; hence if they were captured, they would have been treated as terrorists and could have been executed. The US could not avow for their activities. \n\nAnd remember, uniforms do not have to be uniform--in other words, rank insignia is used to identify those with different amounts of experience; merit badges show different skills attained by the wearer. \n\nFinally, uniforms does not need to consist of clothing at all--oversees, a simple armband with a Red Cross on identifies the wearer as a Red Cross worker.

Many British groups - Army regiments, secondary schools and universities, to name a few - have a distinctive tie. They are stripes, but the colors say "I went to Eaton" or "I served in the King's Own Yorkshire Infantry Regiment".\n\nYou may read about "the old school tie" in British detective novels.\n\nIf you wear one of those without having gone to the school or served in the regiment, you are claiming to be something you are not, and you might make someone uncomfortable.\n\nIf you wear a sweatshirt that says "University of California" on it, it just means you like the school - or stole it from someone who went there. \n\nIf you use the term "regimental tie" in any reputable search engine you'll see a selection.

The combat patch goes on the right shoulder and it should go opposite the way it fits on the left shoulder.  Take a look at how the Division CSM is wearing his patch.  Just reverse to go on the other side.\n\nWhen in doubt, call Marlowe White at 1-800-255-6136.  While they are a commercial company, they have been making uniforms since Washington crossed the Delaware (okay since 1879) and they will give you the straight skinny.  They are good folks.  \n\nMy last source shows the awarding of the combat patch to the Rainbow Division.  Congratulations.
