I had an old 1SG (now CSM) who wished he could trade in his Venezuela Parachutist Badge for another countries after they went full-blown communist. Do you any you would trade in for another?

I would trade in every badge, medal, service stripe, and rank insignia to have brought all of my Soldiers home to their families whole rather than broken or in a box.
RIP Mark, Robert, Stephen, and Hua.
I think of you all every day.

I wouldn’t trade in any of my badges, I earned each and everyone of them, including a set of Venezuelan Jump Wings.

Why not wear them if he got them in a time of peace. And if that's the case most of us would trade in those welcome to the Army ribbons.

That’s true SFC Nelson L. Friday-González. Pretty sure we can stop wearing the “Army Service Ribbon” with our Army Service Uniform... just saying...

I didn't know we had one of those. So when I clicked your link, I was expecting some sort of unusual, super hooah looking badge. Rather disappointed to see it is just a tiny addition to regular aviator badges. But I guess in a way that makes sense, as while now flying in space is pretty elite, in the future I guess it won't be much more unusual than flying in the air. Sort of like they gave Lindbergh a huge parade for flying from the USto Europe, and now everybody does it.

I would trade my Air Assault wings in for the Pathfinder badge
