<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>As this situation would only affect current/former Medics, I'm not sure why this is an issue. Aside from it being a change from the old regulation.... Maybe I have a somewhat jaded opinion simply because i'm not authorized any group 2 badges, but; Is it really "fair" to the rest of the force to have medical badges have their own group?  Effectively we've eliminated group 2 altogether (by limiting the wear of but one for group 1 and 2 collectively).

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>it's hard to say. Exclusivity couldn't be a part of it. groups 1 and 2 represented badges for the two larges mos's in the military. it's not to say they can't be earned simultaneously, just not worn. I wonder if it has something to do with the inclusion of the CAB as a group 1 badge. I received a CAB in baghdad because i was with an MP company and didn't qualify for the CMB. I later earned the CMB with an infantry battalion in afghanistan. does one negate the other? What about allowing an infantryman/medic to wear both the expert badge and the skill badge for the MOS?<br>
