Title: AE Badge
Post by: link on March 02, 2008, 11:57:51 PM
I just got my tech rating for AE and there was no star with it.  What sort of silver star do I put on it?  Where can I get them?

Standard 3/16" silver star for ribbons, available either through Vanguard or The Hock Shop.

The silver star is for the senior rating.  The star with a wreath is the master rating badge.

Wrong kind of badge. The AE specialty track badge has a star for each level, just like the CP specialty track badge.

For tech it is supposed to be a blue star, bronze for senior and silver is for master.

Here is an image of the AE Tech badge, with the blue star.

You're right, my bad. But then someone at Vanguard screwed up, or my vision is, look - http://www.vanguardmil.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=6_390_412_413&products_id=7303 (http://www.vanguardmil.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=6_390_412_413&products_id=7303)That looks blue to me...

Its a Screw up they did the same thing to the DDR Badge was made aware of it but are still sending it out with blue so once you get it call Vanguard and they will send you the right star. As always another Interesting VG Experiance but thats another thread all together.

The badge is supposed to have a blue star attached. There shouldn't be a star attached to your leadership ribbon unless you have a senior rating in a specialty track.
