Rumor of a patch being designed for wear on right sleeve for deployment to GTMO? Will regulation be changed to allow wear of it?

At most it'll be similarly the MFO patch like in Sinai. There won't be a combat patch for GTMO. Sorry.

I don't see that happening and well I hope that it does not happen. Sorry Guantanamo bay is not in a combat zone. It is a lot more like Korea.

Had friends stationed on the DMZ in Korea who would argue with you about your comment.

When I was there in 2002, we fought with the detainees hand-to-hand every day. I've had other deployments as well, and I'm not sure why the 42A who never left Bagram and gained 200 pounds gets a SSIFWTS but not those who dealt with detainees at GTMO.

MAJ(P) (Join to see) You sir understand fully my own case in point. It’s no longer about what I got or didn’t get it’s about what we did. Read: A Naomi Paik - Rightlessness, or review CASE NO.: 94-2183-CIV-ATKINS. HSM/JMUA(iss 1996)are laughable and demeaning to those detained and those deployed. Inhumane, underhanded treatment of a minority race where the atmosphere was atmosphere was fear on one side and encoded bloodlust on the other. I challenge any QRF, EGF, IGF JTF-160 pers to counter. All our briefs and AAR’s used the term COMBATANTS re:Haitian detainees

More than likely it will be something worn during that mission only. Similar to the ISAF patch we wore in Afghanistan.
