I had a bunch of my NCO's tell me that the award is not authorized. I looked in AR 670-1. DA PAM 670-1, MILPER 16-303 etc and can't get a clear answer. Thanks in advance.

Its not in appendix D of AR 600-8-22 of foreign badges authorized for wear on a US uniform. however it IS in the updated version located on HRC homepage. https://www.hrc.army.mil/content/17282 will download the new appendix.

On a somewhat sidenote, since we've determined that the badge is authorized on the ASU, you must obtain permission from the DoD to accept and Retain it. You'll receive a memorandum authorizing it specificially to you adding it to your OMPF(but not erb).

Yes you are authorized to wear it. AR 600-8-22 Appendix 9 lists all foreign badge that the may or may not wear. The Norwegian badge is listed as authorized for wear.

If it is authorized on the Army uniform what about on the Air Force uniform?
