Does a corpsman treating a patient in a combat zone rate a combat action ribbon?
If he's under fire, yes. The Army has a special case: if a medic assigned to an infantry unit treats a patient under enemy action, he will receive the Combat Medical Badge rather than the Combat Action Badge. Medics in non-infantry units will receive the Combat Action Badge.
Combat action ribbon you are now in the Army can you wear the combat action badge?
If you rate the CAR you will need to look up the uniform regs for the Army to see whether or not that is transferrable to their equivalent. My suspicion is no, you cannot wear the infantry badge, but I would suspect that you would still be authorized to wear the CAR on your ribbon rack while in uniform. The CAR is not convertable to a CIB or CAB in the Army. You may continue to wear the CAR on your Army uniform. The Navy/Marine Corps allows the conversion the other way because the badge is not authorized for wear on their uniforms. No. There are three requirements for award of a Combat Infantry Badge: Be in the US Army Infantry, or the Special Forces with any MOS except Special Forces Medic. (SF Medics are eligible for the Combat Medical Badge.) You must hold the rank of Colonel or below--generals cannot earn the CIB. Be assigned to a unit at brigade level or below. If you're assigned to Division or Corps headquarters, you can't earn the CIB. While so assigned, participate in combat against the enemy. Now, given that, if you joined the infantry you will get the opportunity to earn the CIB.
If you switch from Army to Air Force can you wear the Combat Action Badge?
The Combat Action Badge (CAB) is specific to the U.S. Army and is awarded to soldiers who have actively engaged or been engaged by enemy forces in combat. If you switch from the Army to the Air Force, you will not be authorized to wear the CAB unless you have previously earned it during your time in the Army. The Air Force has its own combat-related awards and badges, such as the Air Force Combat Action Medal (CAM).
