Sgt. McArdle has earned one of my favorite awards, the Combat Action Badge. This is one of those badges that shows dedication to the growth of the 29th. Without members that take the time to talk to other and explain what we do here in the 29th and encourage others to join, we would fade off in the sunset and the 29th would just be a memory. So it is with great honor that I present Sgt. McArdle with his Combat Action Badge, First Award for recruiting 2 new cadets into the 29th ID. Congratulation Sgt. McArdle and thank you for your efforts.
