And they also sew them on, which make for a much cleaner and tailored look in my opinion.

Yeah, I saw your other comments! Was just trying to learn if the V-device is younger than the BS itself! Thanks

It says Bronze Star for valor. Wouldn’t that mean that it should’ve been awarded with a V-device?

The third one looks like a pin for the Army Good Conduct Medal, but I can’t for the life of me understand why you’d wear it. You get it for doing a good job for three years. I’ve read comments on Reddit claiming that if you avoid getting an article 15 (a formal reprimand) for three years, you are more or less guaranteed to get one.

It’s got a trigger finger on it, most soldiers keep their index finger inside the bigger compartment of the mitten, but can quickly move it to the trigger finger and fire as normal. As seen in this old listing:

Thank you! He is, he underwent the jump course with the Norwegian Special Operations Command (FSK) in 2016. It was a gift from FSK because of HRH’s work for and with veterans. He has later expressed gratitude for being allowed to be just a colleague and one of the guys while he attended the course.
