I applied on TOD to Djibouti for CO-ADOS. I'm not sure if Djibouti is still a combat zone, but if it is and I get accepted by the receiving unit, will I be authorized to wear a combat patch upon the completion of the tour? Or will I be exempt because my orders will say CO-ADOS instead of mobilization?

I’m the Army commander In Djibouti. I’d be glad to fill you in on any questions you have. Message me if you would like. You get a fwts patch. Where you serve will depend on the position.

Yes, you will be awarded a combat patch. Camp Lemonnier is amazing, I hope you get the tour!. Ive been deployed there twice. I do intel and we were super busy with the threat in the region. Be ready for the hot and humid weather. Other than that, enjoy it!

No such thing as deployment patch. Rt sleeve patch is for deployment to a hostile fire zone. Not for being deployed
