Did whoever told you robogen it?
Huh? I don’t get it.
Yeh. Apparently our RFCO leads it.
It’s a type of bet that what you’re saying is true. Considered worse than eyebrows gen.
So if this is allegedly replacing the lanyard does that mean it’s going to be worn on blue uniform? Where? No space on the brassard. We’re surely not going to put it on the jumper arm like the commando dagger? On the shoulder patch of the jumper where we used to have DofE?
If badges are introduced for Fieldcraft then surely they would be on the greens uniform. Again I can’t see us getting a dagger on the arm past dress regs, commandos would not be happy.

This is the key bit…the message to Joe public it gives is questionable… Marines are simply trained to kill people… The cadets aren’t.
Im all for a left blanking patch badge for field craft PTS. It’s part of the core syllabus but it needs to be done properly. Just… Its time to leave the brassard alone though there’s too much going on

Ol’ Doris from the bingo will have a mental picture of 14 year olds chanting “what makes the grass grow”!
They surely, surely cannot be serious with a dagger?
This has got to be false info and a wind up.
A more suitable image would simply be a hand shape - for hand signals…
Or, a rifle outline or frankly anything.

It’s trolling. Just stop replying.

Surly the correct badge for passing JL is the Gold Leadership badge? Isn’t the whole point of JL so I have been told is to teach the skills of leadership and command through the medium of fieldcraft?

Actually can’t wait
Although MTP isn’t worn just for FC, so there should also be badges for shooting, first aid, leadership, radio, car parking etc.
I agree that there are already too many badges on the brassard. Let’s not do the same thing with MTP.

And… Unless anything actually concrete appears to show that the JLs will indeed be allowed to impersonate RM/Army Commandos, I’m closing this as bait.
