Look your getting down voted, i appreciate you having this level of desire and wanting to serve. I would 100% lose the 1st SFC patch on the back pouch. Get creative, stitch it under the flap or put in an admin pouch. I would also lose the 82nd patch, same thing, stitch it to a pouch or somewhere else. If not, people are gonna say things like Airborne and feet and knees together and then you’re gonna drop a hard F on them for not knowing what those responses mean. I see you’re working with what you got and thats cool. One last recommendation, drop the american flag and get an IR one. That would be the only patch I would wear.

Until you ARE, that’s essentially stolen valor dude. I wouldn’t be wearing it as it’s bad optics and easily interpreted as you claiming to be when you aren’t yet. All that stuff you earn and just wearing it without having gone through it isn’t the same as those who have. That’s the issue.

Your entire family? Mom, sisters, brothers, dad, aunt's, uncles, grandparents, and all 45 of your cousins were in the 82nd and group? Interesting. Still doesn't give you any right to wear the patches. This is how stupid you sound when you say this shit:

My whole family are all Medical Doctors and I will be too when I graduate from HS next year and then earn a pre med BS degree and then spend 4 years in med school. Then complete 6 years of residency. Until then I'll continue to put M.D. on my resume etc because my family is cool with it.
