To the best of my knowledge and review of the thread no one had a problem with keeping the pin on display (certainly I didn't - I suggested a shadow box) in memory of the grandmother. The issue was the brother wearing it. Had the op said simply "Oh, I didn't know that was the policy" there would have been no problem. As far as I am concerned the problem is that she played the handicapped card and stated that she had permission from headquarters. The defensiveness was triggered the wrecking of the thread.

I called because there was nothing on the public DG site, and I wanted to verify the official policy. I have no patience with those who don't do research before posting about an org's policies. (FYI - the policies are apparently on the myDG section of the website for any DGs who want to do any checking).

I do apologize for calling the op a liar. I will delete those posts. PiKA, would you please edit your quoting so that the offending posts are lost to the winds of time.
