Hello, Ive been trying to track down the latest update on the requirements to recieve a CAR. I know that the requirements have changed due to new ememy TTP's, but i am unable to find any new info. Any links or leads pertaining to this would be greatly apreciated. Thanks in advance for all the help.

My issue is that while deployed to Iraq i was positioned as the gunner for our scout vic/mine roller. while on a convoy i was hit with a headwire (really glad the front shield on the turret was there). I have heard that the requirements for a car changed due to the fact that some enemy actions you cannot return fire or you dont recieve fire, but are still detrimental to the operation and the Marines lives. This type of enemy action may not rate a car, but is there another award that may fit this type of action?

First you have to find out if your unit is authorized to wear the CAR.

no i didnt hit it, the front shield of the turret armor hit it and broke it. My question is since that a headwire is an enemy TTP and my vic hit it, do i rate any type of award or ribbon, including the CAR?

You would have to talk to your Senior Enlisted Advisor.

im so sick of people like you trying to get a CAR on a technicality. it cheapens the award for the people that really earn it. i had to fight my way out of Marjah to get my CAR. you want one because you had to duck?
