The only thing that saddens me about this thread is that you have to even ask if it's okay to wear what you want to wear and have earned the right to wear.

That's because there are so many douche bags around playing cops and robbers.

With all due respect I've never heard of a multiple combat vet. I think I know what you mean, I just never have heard that term before.

Thanks for your service.

I wear a 3 piece patch.

That is because people that have no clue of what they are talking continually spout their ignorance in answer to these questions about MCs.

Hey wear it. Be proud of your service. And thanks BTW.

On the other hand if a bunch of your buddies like your patch setup and duplicate it and y'all add an MC cube, and y'all ride together and act like a club then the dominant club in your state may want to talk to you.

You know there are Vet clubs around, even if you didn't want to join you'd still be welcome and you'd probably enjoy hanging out with em.

Not sure why everyone is worried about the MC patch....the local HA doesn't own that. From speaking with some, the 'location' patch would be the only patch to worry about.

Someone care to comment on this?
