Dauphin County District Attorney Fran Chardo on Friday confirmed the investigation into the accusations against Republican Rep. Nick Miccarelli of suburban Philadelphia.

Does anyone know if he earned the Combat Infantryman's Badge?

that pin on his lapel looks like an Army Combat Infantryman Badge, which is awarded to members of the Infantry, Rangers, or Special Forces who fought in active ground combat. According to his bio, he served in the Middle East and was awarded the badge and two others, but I have to wonder if he's wearing it to show his stance on guns.
