I would check the Army reg, and if it isn't clear, check with your chain of command.Response by TSgt David Holman made Feb 13 at 2020 1:25 AM2020-02-13T01:25:42-05:002020-02-13T01:25:42-05:00TSgt David L.5552929<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If its a joint service badge then you might.

The AF is generally a non-warrior service. So the emphasis on mediocrity ribbons will not be positively viewed in the Army, but you legally CAN wear the many mediocrity ribbons.Response by 1SG John Millan made Jan 24 at 2024 1:06 AM2024-01-24T01:06:10-05:002024-01-24T01:06:10-05:002020-02-13T00:38:41-05:00
