I mean, its great that you serve your country, but infantrymen are a different animal all together. Isn't this something the services have made up to make support troops feel better about themselves? While the Infantry certainly couldn't perform without every 11 troops that support a single infantryman, if you were really a bad @$$ in the first place, you would have volunteered to be a grunt. If you close with the enemy to destroy them, you deserve the equivalent recognition of a CIB. I know that there are non infantry troops doing infantry jobs. But if you are not CLOSING WITH the enemy, meaning bringing the fight and not just getting shot at on your way to BIAP, do you really need a badge?
And if you aren't 0311 or 11B, I don't care what you think.
