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

Abso-frigging-luety not...

I think i lost IQ points after reading this question

No. Because the individual was awarded the CAB because they were not in an 11 series or 18 series mos. When the individual switches to the 11 series mos they have to ware their CAB. It's like a former Marine switching to the Army and trading the Marines combat action ribbon to an Army cib or cab, not done and not authorized.

No the CAB you will continue to wear for you earned the CAB for your combat duty and not the CIB. See AR 670-1 on awarding of medals and Badges.

No, you have to be awarded CIB via combat action while in the infantry, so you could wear your CAB untill your awarded your cib then it takes precedence because CIBs are for real men

Yes.

you need to read AR 600-8-22

disregard my last respond

Yes, he is authorize to wear the CIB. It doesn't matter what branch he came from

No, he has to go to combat as infantry to earn the CIB. And you need to be aware there is a lot of us out here who has been Awarded the CAB.
