I was going to train cardio on the treadmills, but they don't allow combat boots on the machines. Due to my limited break time, I don't...

Check DA PAM 670-1, 4-8, Page 7.

“Soldiers may wear pin-on badges with sewn-on nametape, U.S. Army tape, and grade insignia. Soldiers are not authorized to wear pinned-on badges in a field or deployed environment.”
