With OIF, OND, and combat operations "over" in Afghanistan does anyone worldwide get deployment patches anymore? I know they took them away from Kuwait, but how about Afghanistan and Iraq?

Sir, AR670-1, Apr2015,para 21-17,pg 33-34. You should read it because it has lots of dates and details. BLUF, it depends on whether you were supporting OEF/CENTCOM and receiving Immenent Danger Pay. And yes even Kuwait!

I was in Jordan last year and we got them there. It is a combat zone but we were not conducting combat operations. We still got the pay.

LTC (Join to see) - Yeah. There were some operations out of that country that supporting operations in neighboring countries. I think we got it due to what was happening in that country. I am not going to complain too match. Jordan was openly fighting ISIS. We were next to Syria and Iraq.

Iraq, Afghanistan, Horn of Africa, certain "other" corners of the world, and Syria, off the top of my head.
