During my NSF days in Commando, I found the pathfinder badge is the rarest among the elite... I knew only 2 WOs wore this. Even rarer than the US ranger yellow tab.

I am curious about this badge... any commends?

tkw88 SG

Not an expert myself.

But i understand that pathfinder is a US badge. Specialise in preparing drop zone for paratroopers.

Obersturmfuhrer SG

Thats the US Pathfinder badge.

TVaddict SG

Obersturmfuhrer SG

So has a 2SG I met from 3rd TPT

Dutch SG

And also the ex WSM WO of CTW forgot his name... I think it is Teo.

Er! Thats also the same badge issued to British airborne pathfinders. I believe they started the school after WW II. Then again I could be wrong. Mr. Green
Except for the RANGERs, the U.S military didn't really start anything before the Brits. D-boys base on SAS, sniper school after vietnam had similarities with the Brits school, etc. Rolling Eyes

what about the American Air Assault Course .. my CSM in SISPEC had one and he also got marksmanship for 3 of the range … he told that when he wear No. 1, he will put up all these badges …

Obersturmfuhrer SG

When I met him he was still 2SG...

Air assault is basically doing the same things as Guards. Just get an extra badge.

Noeyessee SG

ok…

John Ching SG

Hmm! Have you ever seen a senior U.S Marine in No.1? They usually have so much badges on them that you can't tell if they are a soldier or a walking badge collector. Mr. Green

If worst when they are dressed in their No.2, they looke like damn boy scouts.

devilgoth SG
