Expert Infantry Badge -- The Expert Infantryman Badge, or EIB, is a special skills badge of the United States Army (long rifle on a blue background). Although similar in name and appearance to the Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB), it is a completely different award. The CIB is awarded to infantrymen for participation in ground combat while the EIB is presented for completion of a course of testing designed to demonstrate proficiency in infantry skills.

Honorable service lapel pin -- The Honorable Service Lapel Button, sometimes called the Honorable Service Lapel Pin, was awarded to United States military service members who were discharged under honorable conditions during World War II.[1] The award is sometimes colloquially called the Ruptured Duck.
