The earlier statements on the fourragères are correct - they should never be worn by anyone not specifically entitled to them, and only during the prescribed periods of wear.
    Now I understand, Colonel.

    Thank you, Colonel MacNeal. I can't really imagine why you would want to wear one, but why not! The XMTS people are notorious for coming up with weird and fanciful expressions.
