Foreign badges no longer go on your ERB/SRB so should I keep it on because I earned it or would taking it off help make my uniform look "better"?
AR 670-1 Para 22-18 does say align to the right edge of the name tagso that the crest is visible, but I am looking for just professional options on this.
(Also that was just the lighting, my lapel is NOT that wrinkled)

If I earned it, I wore it. Just make sure you are wearing your stuff in accordance with AR 670-1. While not listed on your ERB/SRB you should have the orders authorizing the acceptance and wear of your foreign awards in your OMPF (unless something has changed recently). In the photo provided I can see enough of the regimental crest to determine correct or incorrect placement. I'd be interested to see if it becomes more or less visible with you wearing your jacket.

As long as it is in your OMPF, then wear it after all you earned it. Just make dang sure it conforms to the latest regs and is still a valid award according to the regs.

Way to many badges worn in the Army to even keep track of, I would hate to have to be pinning all of those badges on my uniform for each and every inspection or promotion board.
