Tiny,

You lied.

Admit it.

 

****. There is no such thing as blanket CIB orders that would award a CIB to an entire unit of soldiers who did not engage in combat.  

Answering this one question correctly will get me to stop posting until Thurs:

Even under "blanket" CIB orders did the recipients actively engage in combat with the enemy?  Yes or no?


Requirements for Valid CIB Awarding:

• Individual Qualification: The soldier must be an infantry/Special Forces MOS, assigned to an infantry unit, and actively engaged in ground combat.
• Documentation: Unlike medals, the CIB often uses "extract" orders covering several members.
