RE: CAR Award Most Wanted by Marines

in #veteran6 years ago

One of my best friends in the shipyards was a Marine that did 8 years and I think got out because the Vietnam war was over. When he re-enlisted, he got stateside duty but hated keeping shoes shined so back to Vietnam he went for second 4 years. He was a little off, you never turned your back on him but he was hella fun to work with. Thanks for your service, fellow badger!!

What is the actual name Car or Cab? They also tied someone's car axel to a post in a Movie. I think it was called Happy Days. Someone correct me because I want to google that scene.

CAR is combat action ribbon (Navy & Marines), CAB is combat action badge (Army). It was American Graffiti with the car axle. Army has CIB for infantry and CMB for medics too.
