Combat action ribbon you are now in the Army can you wear the combat action badge?
If you rate the CAR you will need to look up the uniform regs for the Army to see whether or not that is transferrable to their equivalent. My suspicion is no, you cannot wear the infantry badge, but I would suspect that you would still be authorized to wear the CAR on your ribbon rack while in uniform. The CAR is not convertable to a CIB or CAB in the Army. You may continue to wear the CAR on your Army uniform. The Navy/Marine Corps allows the conversion the other way because the badge is not authorized for wear on their uniforms. No. There are three requirements for award of a Combat Infantry Badge: Be in the US Army Infantry, or the Special Forces with any MOS except Special Forces Medic. (SF Medics are eligible for the Combat Medical Badge.) You must hold the rank of Colonel or below--generals cannot earn the CIB. Be assigned to a unit at brigade level or below. If you're assigned to Division or Corps headquarters, you can't earn the CIB. While so assigned, participate in combat against the enemy. Now, given that, if you joined the infantry you will get the opportunity to earn the CIB.
Could a Marine attached to an Army infantry unit during combat operations wear the Combat Infantryman Badge?
No. They would receive a Combat Action Ribbon. If ever they transferred to the Army, then they'd be eligible to wear the CIB or CAB in lieu of their Combat Action Ribbon.
Is it required to wear the combat patch with the CIB or can you wear the combat patch on its own?
The combat patch and the CIB are separate awards. Any soldier who goes to war is awarded a combat patch. Any infantry soldier below the rank of colonel who is assigned to a line unit, engages in battle against the enemy and survives is awarded the CIB.If you have a CIB you also have a combat patch; having a combat patch doesn't necessarily mean you have the CIB.

How do you transfer the combat action ribbon for the combat action badge?
Why would you want to? The CAR means more to a Marine, and hold the equiv of an Army CIB. Also, you can NOT transfer a CAR to a CIB.
Can you wear the Expert Infantryman badge if you have a combat infantryman badge?
You can only wear one at a time - they can't be worn together. With or without a CIB, the only way you'd be authorised to wear the EIB is if you've tested for and were awarded it. If you havn't done this, you can't wear the EIB, even if you have a CIB.
If you are not an expert marksman can you still wear the badge cause you have an cib?
The Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB) is awarded to infantry personnel who have actively engaged in ground combat. It does not require expertise in marksmanship. Therefore, if you meet the qualification criteria for the CIB as an infantry soldier, you can wear the badge regardless of your marksmanship skills.
