Do enlisted personnel wear branch insignia on their collars now?
Also what is this patch?

I could be wrong, but I am almost positive they wear that patch on the LEFT arm, after finishing a certain phase in Basic. I have only heard talk about it being worn on the right arm. Most likely, this guy was a soup sammich.RogerThat wrote:no friggin way....
I haven't seen any ammendments to the 670-1.(not that I've actually looked) That combat patch stuff is just ridiculous.
I'll look into it.
I've got a few minutes, and a couple of beers...![]()

Well if your signature line is any indication of what is being pumped through BCT then it makes perfect sense.Idioteque wrote:Don't know anything about the patch, but when I was in OSUT after we were issued our cross rifles we wore them on our ACU collar up until our Turning Blue ceremony.
I know that two Generals who were strap-hanging a few weeks back wore them. I asked them why they were wearing those patches and they said it's what you wear when you work at the Pentagon now.RangerX wrote: Also what is this patch?
No one that I have ever seen wears ANY crap on their ACU collars. (But WTF do I know...I went thru BCT in 85.)Matador275 wrote:I know that two Generals who were strap-hanging a few weeks back wore them.

No clue if they were pulling my chain, but it sounded legit.
