Infantry Master Gunner

[Wayne McGee]

Back to subject.
As unlikely as it may be, I am not calling into question the possibility of an Infantry MWO holding the qualification of Master Gunner. Nor am I suggesting that an Artillery MWO does not wear the trade badge of Master Gunner if so qualified (though I do not beleive he does), but that is out of my lane.
However, as I said earlier, no Infantry Warrant Officer wears a Trade Badge.

Wayne...I saw it with my own eyes. All our Instructors sitting at table saw it. It was in the gold "bullion" material the same as all DEU insigniae.

I don't think, anyway, that this would be classed as a trade badge, rather an appointment, perhaps?

I'm sorry you missunderstood Jon, I'm not doubting what you saw, but the MWO's authority to wear the badge.
The lower right sleeve is the domain of your qualifications.
"Bayonnet"= qualified Infantryman
"Crossed Rifles"= qualified with his personal weapon for that year.
"WO, MWO, CWO"= None of your effen buisiness, I'll ask the questions around here!

Cheers
