I'm not up on all the millitary badges so I'm just going to throw my .02 into the ring theoretically.

I think there should be a badge like this mostly for support troops. Of course the infantry and other front line troops are only trained to fight but for a medic or a mechanic or whatever other MOS have you, actually fighting in a battle is something worth of commendation... certainly not medal of honor or anything just for shooting back but a small commendation like this is a good idea. Basically saying "this man has been through the test of combat and passed."
