Can I wear my Airborne and Air-Assault badges while in basic training?

Yes! You earned them...

When I went to Basic Training no one wore rank or badges until graduation even if you were prior service. I guess it would be up to what the units SOP says.

You can. Your decision. The cadre will know before you get there anyway.

Years ago, I was in a unit with a former sailor who had earned the Navy Enlisted Submarine Dolphin Badge; he had the same question. He earned the badge and proudly wore it on his Army uniform.

You earned them, they are part of your official military record, wear them with pride.

You earned them and wear them proudly.

The Drill Sergeants will be on you if you wear them ---if you do ---be in shape and be proud---!!!! AATW

When I got commissioned I wore my drill sgt badge at iobc just to stand out. Being a lieutenant in a sea of lieutenants you got to do something. They made me student company commander.

Wear them proudly

Specialist, back in the 60s you could not wear any previously earned qual badges while in BCT/AIT. The reason is that all Boots are equal during training. After graduation you could then assume wearing your earned qual badges. However, that is not the case now. You earn it you wear it. You're a walking billboard for particular programs such as Rangers, SEAL, Divers, etc. Check with your command when you report for duty.
