When are AIT soldiers required to carry their phase badge and sharp cards?

AIT (Advanced Individual Training) soldiers are required to carry their phase badge and SHARP (Sexual Harassment/Assault Response and Prevention) cards at all times because these items are essential components of their identity and responsibility as soldiers in training. The phase badge signifies the soldier's current phase in training, marking their progress and achievements, while the SHARP card serves as a critical resource for soldiers to report incidents and seek assistance regarding sexual harassment and assault. Having these items readily available ensures that soldiers can fulfill their roles, uphold standard military conduct, and access necessary support whenever needed. This constant readiness underscores the importance placed on maintaining military standards and responding to issues related to safety and well-being among soldiers, regardless of the situation they find themselves in.
