Will I get promotion points for each of my Driver badges?

AR 600-8-19, chapter 3, Para 3-43, states that Soldiers earn a maximum of five points for Driver or Mechanic Badge. It will be changed to 10 points on 1 June 2011. Will Soldiers who have multiple Driver and Mechanic Badges be able to get points for more than one?

No, you will only receive a maximum of 10 points for the award of the basic Driver and Mechanic Badge.
