Some of you may or may not know but there was a chance to earn the German Sch\u00fctzenschnur and Armed Forces Badge for Military Proficiency<\/a> sometimes incorrectly refereed to the Sportsman badge. It was from June to mid July to complete all the requirements of the badges. Yesterday I finally received one of the badges. I am still waiting to receive the Sch\u00fctzenschnur but I have the personal action paper in my OMPF (Online Military Personal File) <\/p>\n

I earned the Sch\u00fctzenschnur on June 6th<\/a>. However I wanted to go in a corner and cry when people did not see the Irony of of earning a German award on the date of D-Day. Or perhaps it was the fact that no one knew that D-Day is on June 6th. <\/p>\n

I earned the second one on June 22nd with the Last event of the 3000 meters in 14:30. It was nice considering that I did not get the EFMB last year and missed a chance to go this year. Now I just have to figure out how to put this Sch\u00fctzenschnur on or just be lazy and wear the other badge. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
