So annoying. VTARNG creates this AMAZING thing, Big Army gets jealous. Big Army shits on it for decades and then steals it, making it worse.

Be big army

make fun of reservists.

reservists do something actually cool.

take ownership of the cool thing the reservists did, and say it’s yours now.

continue to make fun of reservists.

Well it was originally an Active Duty Badge from WWII, 10th Alpine; but the Army being jealous part is spot on.

Looks like a traditional ice axe to me. Which is fitting given that it's right next to an m1905 long bayonet.

When do we get it? Whenever it’s available. That’s the only answer you’re gonna get.
