I am wondering if I can put a ships team diver badge on an army uniform? I was in the navy and transferred to army... Can I place the STD badge on the army uniform? As well SSI goes on sleeve... correct?

Thanks!

Yes to both your questions - and carry a copy of the dress regs with you for all the WOs, MWOs and CWOs who will challenge you ;)

Just to be clear on vocab. here: Ships have Dive Teams, but the qualification is "Ship Diver", not Ships Team Diver. The whole is by opposition to the more advanced - full time divers trade: Clearance Divers.

And Journeyman, it's "diver" not dive. The badge that says you dive is the submariner badge :). Then again, I suppose any badge that indicates you are in Gagetown ... or Shilo, is a "dive" badge.

Harsh. True, but still harsh.

Those are basic diver qualifications only if you attended a West coast diver course - on the East coast, it's lobster tails and Jig fishing.

I think the lobster has been put on ice since the court martials for poaching - or are you saying that the East Coast navy never learns?

Well, we keep getting failures on items that are past their PM date for change out, and still have PM not being done to change the item out before it fails, so...
