Pardon my ignorance as I know nothing about the Air Force...are they allowed to wear that Screaming Eagle patch if they're attached to the 101st?
If the unit they were attached to allowed it, the Air Force Expeditionary Group that had admin control of the Airmen generally didn't object. For quite some time in Afghanistan the Air Force didn't have uniforms that were fire retardant other than flight suits, so they allowed Airmen attached to Army units (known then as Joint Expeditionary Tasking or JET Airmen) to wear Army issued combat uniforms. I knew of a group of Air Force EOD techs attached to a British Army unit that took to wearing Brit uniforms. That was frowned upon by Air Force leadership.
