  Its rare in the SAF and its also rare to find anyone out on the streets that'll even come close to qualifying for this.

  So nowadays less common? Last time not exactly uncommon but quite a number of drivers I know got the badge. Did they change the requirements of getting the badge?

  Airborne where got rare? Machiam 30% of the regulars who are in combat vocations seems to have it.
  
  Recently saw this MP WO with airborne, diver, marksman, ippt badges on his No.3. impressive, taking into context he is an MP.

  No. As long as you are vocated which requires you to drive, you are eligible.
  
  Drivers, Tpt sups and even MP bikers are allowed to wear the badge.
  
  You can see lots of MP bikers with that badge on.

  It is easier to get it nowadays. More or less all CAT A drivers will have it. 10 thousand click is the main priority, 1 or even 2 accidents can close one eye. Last i heard, there's going to be a badge for drivers' guide too.
