Yes. If you have earned the Combat Action Badge (CAB) you can wear it on your Class A uniform.
The combat action badge are worn with "Class A" Army green, blue or white uniform coats. You must wear that uniform when wearing the badge.
The CAB and CIB are class one badges and are of higher precedence than any other badges.

Yes. Unlike the Combat Infantryman Badge, Expert Infantryman Badge, and Combat Action Badge - which are Group I awards - the Combat Medic and Expert Field Medic Badges are Group II awards. The CAB was intended for personnel who are not eligible for the Combat Infantryman Badge. Contrary to what was previously stated, not everyone who serves in an Infantry unit is eligible for a CIB. A Combat Medic in an Infantry unit does not get awarded a CIB, for example. If that unit has dedicated communications personnel assigned to the unit, they're not eligible for the CIB (however, someone with an 11B MOS who is serving as a radiotelephone operator is eligible for a CIB). One interesting contrast with the CAB vs. the CIB and CMB is that the CAB is awarded - at least in theory - only to those who make direct contact with the enemy, whereas the only requirements for the CIB and CMB is that you spend 30 days in a zone for which the award is authorised, whether you make contact or not. Truth of the matter is, there are plenty of CAB recipients who have legitimately earned it - there's also a good number of fobbits who've received them because some mortars landed on the opposite side of the camp they were at. By the way, the Combat Medic badge is no longer exclusive to line medics - from 2001 to 2004, the Army revamped it's MOS classification system. The MOS of 91B (Combat Medic) was removed, and was folded into the MOS of 68W (Healthcare Specialist) - which encompasses a much broader range than the old 91B MOS did. Thus, you have medics being awarded CMBs who've never so much as left the FOB.
No. Army Regulation 670-1 forbids it. They are in the same class of awards.

Yes, you can create a class action without class action attorneys, but it is not recommended. There is a ton of paperwork that is best handled by an attorney who knows about class action lawsuits.
