What unit were you with? I am not asking that to trouble shoot you. You obviously joined a little bit before I did.

The one key factor that I might have missed is that "It is all at the discretion of the Commander." So if that is the way he wanted you to wear it the way you did, then that is what you did. However, yours is the only circumstance in which I have heard that. Other than SOCOM or Black Ops not wearing them at all.

See and I've never really understood that. My friend was in the 75th RR and I asked him, "Why don't guys like you wear flags? It's not like people won't know you're Americans." He basically said it just looks cool.

It's that whole illusion of denial thing. If they aint sporting the flag; then they we not sent by the Government. Yeah right. But in their defense they usually don't get caught anyway.
