Talk:Submarine Combat Patrol insignia

Has this been awarded to anyone since World War II? I think some discussion on that would be useful. -- Whalepelt 21:37, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

No. Boats which were involved in the missile strikes against Afghanistan in 2001 requested the badge, but were denied. The idea seemed to be that awarding the pin to submariners who sat in comfort at computers, drinking coffee, would cheapen the awards given to sailors who endured daily life -- not to mention depth charge attacks -- on WWII diesel boats. 104.153.40.58 (talk) 19:43, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
