Technically we wear there patch as the combat patch. I proudly wear my 3ID patch, as I as a reservist went along for the first assault into Baghdad(well not quite all the way I was injured before it near Nasiriyah). But I earned the right to wear it. Just like I deserve call myself proudly as a member of the US Army and US Army Reserves.
Question: Can a group of us get together and write a press release condemning this new tactic? I am sure that if somebody had the proper skills we can garner enough e-signatures in a short period of time to at least get some press time.
Write it and I'll sign it. I hope your injuries were not severe and you have recovered. I fortunately was not injured, although during a mortar attack I was knocked out of bed and hit my head, of course this would have been cause for a PH for Kerry..LOL..Thanks for serving..Mike1sg
