SSI-MOHC TDY GWOT-EM ?
QFTG: A former soldier of mine, recently received information/ guidance that they're now authorized to wear the SSI MOHC from our former unit. Based on the following criteria:
-1610 (TDY ISO/ detailed location etc.)
-IDP
-Awarded GWOT-EM
-ISO a named OP.
I countered with the latest AR 670-1 pg 43-44 reference. But, him and I have been told yes( bc aforementioned ) no (no czte) and not sure. Wondering if anyone in the group has had similar experiences and or input to a way ahead. Thanks for any and all feedback.

The correct answer is still AR 670-1. ch 21-18.
Specifically c. (20):"Future operations: Combatant commanders may request wear of the SSI – MOHC for future areas of operation designated and approved by the CSA."
If your deployment is not listed there, then the GCC must submit it for CSA approval.
If the aforementioned guidance included that CSA approval, then yes.
If not, then no.

CW2 (Join to see) - If that person was on orders (TDY or TCS) to a country listed in AR 670-1, and arrived in that country, yes.
If that country is not in AR 670-1 yet, then the GCC would have to submit that country, with justification and effective dates, to the CSA for approval.

I see, so only countries listed in AR for the designated operation are eligible for SSI Mohc. Which does not include countries that sub operations take place in? Appreciate all and any feedback!

CW2 (Join to see) - That is correct.
For what it's worth, we have some Soldiers on TCS orders in direct support of all the main operations going on today, and they are "deployed" to Maryland, Georgia and southern California...
