I am with Karl. I think is is somewhat disrespectful to wear a badge
worn by special forces officers, and intended for special forces
officers, unless you have been a special forces officer.<br>
<br>
To me its kinda like if you went around wearing a White Bracer on your
arm and you weren't a member of the Order. I would be annoyed at
someone who did that.<br>
<br>
Or better yet, if you decided to wear a Red Bracer, a Red Belt, and a
Red Scarf. Those items aren't "official" or protected by our kingdom
law. We simply customarily use them to mean something that is very
special to those that wear them. We honor those people who very
carefully consider who they will give those customary insignia to by
keeping to those customs and traditions and allowing them to remain
special. Why not honor those who have served our country in the
special forces similarly?<br>

you wanted some of the special stuff, you had to prove you deserved
it. Unless you know any officers in the special forces, most Joe's
wont be able to buy it in a PX. <br>
<br>
And to tell the truth, why not find an artist who can make stuff like
that? Its kinda disrespectful to have those things if you havent
earned them.<br>
