I like this idea, especially for veterans who don't have their full uniforms any more. Once a soldier, always a soldier.

I have friends from exchanges with Commonwealth armies. I like their traditional method of civilian wear. Many of their "old boys" belong to regimental associations and wear their decorations on blazers with an embroidered badge and a regimental stripe tie for events. We have a few who do likewise in the States.

I like that too but modern Americans would never dress so well even retired officers. .

I only wear my awards and decorations on my Army dress uniform. I've never felt the need to wear them on my civilian clothes.

CWO2 S R - Even when I had my break in service, I didn't wear my stuff on civilian clothes. I'm not knocking others for doing it, I'm just saying I never felt the need.

I wear my medals for Vets Day and Memorial Day, the rest of the time; I would not, just seems odd any other time.

LtCol Bruce Janis - It's necessary to remember that the Civil war was a tragedy. Brother against brother. 500,000 dead, more then in all the other American wars put together . Yet eventually the brothers made their peace. B
