If you've earned the driver badge, Expert Grenadier badge and Sharpshooter badge, would you wear all 3?

How often are you in your dress uniform? I have air assault wings, drivers badge and expert shooter on mine but i only have worn it a handful of time since ive been in. If you earned it show it off. Nothing says you can't. My 2 cents.

No. I could see the driver badge but not the grenade badge. That seems a bit to basic training-ish for me. When I was at Bragg we would only wear Expert Rifle. It didn't matter what other quals you have. It would just be too much.
I am glad as an officer I don't wear anymore of those.
When did you last qual with grenades.

I qualified with live grenades every 6-8 months while assigned to my last SIGNAL UNIT, believe it or not. it was crazy how a 100 mam company would put on a live grenade range, but very informative and actually fun.

Technically anyone who qualifies with either hand grenades, the MK-19, the M203 or the M320 would all be authorized the GRENADE qualification bar.
It applies to far more than just the Basic Training initial tosses.

I think the Grenade badge is a bit over the top. You could but then why. I didn't realize anyone qualifies on grenades outside of basic training.
