No.
For those questioning - Combat Infantryman's Badge.

I have the EIC badge, no combat for me though. My job was making sure your armament equipment was fully serviceable when needed…I was very good at that too.

Combat Infantry Badge (CIB)
Weapon (Wpn)

Glad I saw your post.

No

I will admit to running outside and staring into the sun when a C-130 flies over and then coming back into the trailer and hi-fiving the first person available.

Sometimes I’ll even make a thread when a helicopeter flies over.

Absolutely, at one time almost all of us had them. Not a lot still in with them.

I thought the requirements were:
Combat MOS
90 days in a combat zone (not sure how that reads)
Combat MOS and come under enemy fire.

One should try their best to ALWAYS have superior firepower in the form of mortars, gunships, artillery, A-10's.

One SHOULD ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT ALL MOS' are important no matter their function!

Yes

11F 40 WAY BACK when.

11 series and exchange of steel in anger. Though at times there have been some very lenient report vetting.

Ah, breaker one-nine, this here's the Rubber Duck... you got a copy on me Pig Pen, c'mon?... Oh... Wait?... Nevermind!...

Any MOS can get a Combat Action Badge (CAB) and the medics can earn a Combat Medic Badge (CMB).

Navy Achievement Medal with Combat V.

Uh,,,,,,,, Army does not have a combat action ribbon. That’s a marine corp thing. The Army does have the combat action badge (CAB) which soldiers outside of 11 and 18 series get.

Yes. Iraq 2004.

One could argue the EIB is harder to get and more meaninful due to the labor and skill involved.

Do not.

No

No, wrong MOS.

I thought about buying an F-150 just to put my Arrow of Light sticker on the back window.
