If a POG, awarded with a CAB (combat action badge), were to transfer to Infantry, would the soldier be authorized to wear the CIB?

The receiving command would either transfer the CAB to the CIB or not to transfer.

Good Question . And i have No absolute answer . But like every one i have an opinion . No not till they have become infantry and met the requirements as an infantryman . But they can wear their CAB .

Why is it that a PFC calls someone with a CAB a POG? Combat Arms personnel are awarded the CAB because many of us fought as provisional Infantry. Ask that question again when you have been in the Army a while longer than AIT.
