In the latest Commanders Briefing clip, Lt. Colonel (MD) Barry Greene, President of The State Guard Association of The United States (SGAUS), responds to the revised National Guard Policy CNGBI 5500.01, which advises that State Defense Force troops should no longer wear the Combat Patch, Combat Infantryman Badge, and other federally recognized military accomplishments. Lt. Col. Greene expresses his disapproval of the removal of these hard-earned distinctions. Citing various sources, he adds that even some within the National Guard oppose stripping prior service members of their combat patches, emphasizing that these honors represent sacrifices made in service to the nation.
