CSIB and Unit Patch Inaccuracy

Say, didn't the 86th IBCT (MTN) just repatch back to it's former, buck's head patch? Most Soldiers of this BCT don't wear the former, 10th Mountain Division patch anymore. Perhaps a talented, Wiki editor can research and update this page to reflect the change? Barbwire45 (talk) 21:20, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have been trying but cannot find any official articles or documentation to support the move back to the cooler looking SSI, just anecdotal evidence. --McChizzle (talk) 21:24, 10 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@McChizzle: Based on these recent news articles, I think you're right. This one (photo 3) and this one. Look at the shoulder sleeve insignia and it's pretty clear that they're wearing the stag's head not the crossed swords. I'll try to find something official so the change to the article can be made.

@McChizzle: Here's another article I think supports your contention.
