I know what my Ranger friends will say about the tan vs. khaki berets but what do you think about Cav Scouts having the "new long tab". Personally I don't feel that it should be above the SF but the Rangers, Sapper, and President's One Hundred maybe. Let me know what you think

Then what? Infantry tab? Armor tab? Truck Driver tab?
Tabs are to show special qualification, not MOS. Your "Scout tab" is a shiny little disc with crossed sabres, just like every other MOS that is awarded for graduating AIT has theirs.

I agree with you Sgt. I believe the "Tab" should remain a representation of a "skill". My crossed rifles and blue cord are enough for me.

Ok here is something, infantry has there blue disk and cord. What special thing did that Infantry guy do to get awarded that? Engineers has a SAPPER tab and for what? As a 19D they made us go to EIB, we passed with first time go (to easy) but was told we couldn't wear it because we where 19D. I had to get SAPPER qualified to run the demo range, Again I got a first time go with no studying. Now for 19D we have a spur ride, land navigation (day and night), road march, shooting, Badley Gunnery Skill Training, range card, PT test, Vehicle Identification, Call for fire, MILIOS Plugger drills, tactics, First Aid, demo, and a 20 km road march. I earned my Spurs (Gold and Silver), Stetson and Sabre. Do 19Ds do more than most MOSs? Yes, so why not a Recon tab

As I was always busting my rump while my medic friends sat in hummers with A/C following us in case any of us went down (which we never did even if we did get jacked up) made me angry on the marches. You think a cord or something along the lines of a recon tab. Such is the life of 19D's

If a recon tab were to be awarded I feel it would be worthy for successful completion of RSLC, but not for just being a 19D.

Because its nothing special. You can go to Ranger school and get your tab. Recondo had a patch. That was a real school. Maybe then.

I think active duty people on RallyPoint should get their own tab! Only best of the best here!!!
