Default Canadian Airborne in CADPAT
What the the heck is this supposed to be?

Unless I missed something and the Canadian Airborne Regiment was reinstated.

Even if they are on the correct side, it would still be wrong. Qualification badges are not worn on CADPAT. This is obviously intended for the paintballer/airsoft crowd. I'm not even going to address the "airborne" badge...

I have yet to get a reply from this seller. Little wonder. In the mood I currently find myself in, I am tempted to list an auction with his photos, calling the item exactly what it is a POS 100% garbage.

Ya, I just meant that in addition to everything else the person who put this together couldn't even get that right. But you are exactly right about badges on Cadpat....
