Just my opinion.
I think you are right on Ceremonies such as the Regimental dinner, especially the dinner!

I know that I enjoy my annual visit to the 1st SFG(A) Menton Day activities, as well as the Group's support (Sending an ODA with the latest equipment to our SFA Chapter XVI's Picnics and support to our chapter members funerals, etc.)

I know that I have a certificate framed that the 'Regiment' issued to me proclaiming me as a "Member of the 1st Special Forces Regiment," that I'm very proud of.

Are these still given out?
