Badges, Patches & Pins for Your Tams, Caps, Hats & Kilts

[Dixiedog]

You know... That is a Very Good Question !!! I am Retired Military and I Personally think that wearing an Organizational Badge is OK as long as it is being worn with civilian attire and not being worn with, or as part of a uniform. Take for instance, people Wearing the same type Ball Cap that the Police or Fire Department wear with the NYPD or FDNY Badges on it. As long as the Caps are worn with Civialian Attire, there is no problem. Or even a Hunter using a USMC Cap with the imprinted Globe & Anchor when he's out hunting in Jeans and an Old Field Jacket that he may have got at an Army / Navy Store.

Remember now, we are only talking about Organizational Badges... Not Personal or Unit Awards... (Medal of Honor - Silver Star - Distinguished Flying Cross - Purple Heart, etc...etc).

So I guess it all depends on what the Badge or Patch applies too and under what conditions that it is worn.

Later Folks...

OK ,I have to ask But is it OK to wear a badge or patch -if you
were not millitery or in any way apart of that pin or patch ?

I only ask because there are pins that I like ,and I am not millitray.

I just like the pins IE the saint andrews pin with the cross or a Black watch
pin.
