Rep. Troy Nehls Faces GOP Criticism for Wearing Revoked Military Pin

House Republicans condemn Nehls for displaying a Combat Infantryman Badge despite it being rescinded due to ineligibility.

Nehls continues to wear the badge awarded by mistake, which was revoked in 2023.
The badge is reserved for infantrymen or Special Forces engaged in ground combat, which Nehls was not.
Several GOP colleagues, including military veterans, have labeled Nehls' actions as 'stolen valor.'
Nehls disputes claims about his military record, asserting he earned two Bronze Stars.
The controversy has sparked internal GOP discussions and calls for Nehls to stop wearing the pin.
