Re: Army Orbital Warfare Badge Requirements

The Army Orbital Warfare Badge

This order establishes the course work criteria for the Army Orbital Warfare Badge. It will recognize people who have cross trained across the Army Staff Specializations.

	Enlisted	Officer
S 1 (Personnel)	Basic Ground Forces Personnel Management (A)	Advanced Ground Forces Personnel Management (C)
S 2 (Security)	Advanced Special Operations and Intelligence Course (C)	Expert Special Operations and Intelligence Course (D)
S 3 (Operations/Training)	Any 2 C courses from Force Deployment and Operations Department	Any two D courses from Force Deployment and Operations Department
S 4 (Logistics)	Basic Ground Forces Logistics and Finance Course (A)	Expert Ground Forces Logistics and Finance Course (D) and Advanced Combat Engineering Course (C)

Most of these courses are still in redevelopment and the following substitutions will operate to allow army members to earn the badge while KR1MA MOS school is in the process of opening.
Ground Forces Personnel Management = Navy TSC Personnelman
Special Operations and Intelligence Course = Marine Military Police
Force Deployment and Ops Department = Marine Special Teams
Ground Forces Logistics and Finance = Marine Administration Course
Combat Engineering Course = Any Naval or Merchant Marine Engineering course.

As the Army courses come online, they will replace the substitutions, with a 60-day crossover to allow people who have started a substitute course to finish that.

To apply for the pin, fill out the form at this address. The BuTrain office will assess your application and if you are successful will announce in the following months’ award announcement.
