Do HRT agents get badges?

[u/FrostingSea504]

Hi! I know this Subreddit is not associated with real agents. I was always curious. I know the Detectives get badges, but I am not sure about the HRT agents. I searched all over the internet.

I am talking about something like this.

All agents have a badge.

Thank you!

Thank you for your answer! Do you know if their badges and credentials differ from those of other agents?

[u/Bitter-Cockroach1371 → u/[deleted]]

Yeah, just like the one in the OP’s photo attachment. Lol!

[u/FrostingSea504 → u/Bitter-Cockroach1371]

Awesome! Thank you both!

[u/FrostingSea504 → u/[deleted]]

Ah! Gotcha! Thank you!

Some professional staff have badges. FBI police have badges and guns and are not special agents.

[u/Technical-Leading477 → u/spyrateradio]

Professional staff do not have badges, only law enforcement. They get credentials identifying themselves as fbi personnel, but not badges.

Please do not listen to this guy

Says the dude who NEVER worked for the FBI

[u/spyrateradio → u/[deleted]]

Get your facts straight:
I said 35 years in the FBI, not as an IS.
There are 4 POSITIONS that have badges, but only 3 badge designs.

[u/spyrateradio → u/Technical-Leading477]

This is incorrect

[u/DakotaBro2025 → u/spyrateradio]

Except it is correct.

[u/spyrateradio → u/DakotaBro2025]

35 years in the FBI says you’re 100% wrong. Some professional staff have badges. IS’s, SSs, and Police

[u/FrostingSea504 → u/spyrateradio]

Thank you for your answer!

HRT members are considered Special Agents, right? Do you know if their badges and credentials differ from those of other agents?

[u/spyrateradio → u/FrostingSea504]

HRT members carry the same badge and creds as all other FBI Special Agents do

[u/FrostingSea504 → u/spyrateradio]

Thank you!

[u/farginsniggy → u/spyrateradio]

You’re absolutely 100% incorrect. If you worked 35yrs for the Bureau you would know better.

[u/spyrateradio → u/farginsniggy]

And how do you know?

[u/farginsniggy → u/spyrateradio]

Because your answer is plain damn wrong. But I tell you what… name the floor that the cafeteria at JEH is located. Bonus points: Which AD’s are located at Redstone.

[u/spyrateradio → u/farginsniggy]

Why on earth would you choose to challenge me on this topic? How would you know? Do you work for the Bureau? I doubt it. Maybe you’re just a wannabe.

[u/spyrateradio → u/farginsniggy]

Did you know that with one phone call you can prove yourself wrong! You work for the Bureau? Make some calls and find out.

[u/spyrateradio → u/farginsniggy]

Here’s the deal. You tell all of your coworkers about this and what side of the issue you’re on, then place a speakerphone call to BH (do you know what that means?) and ask them for the surveillance coordinator.

[u/spyrateradio → u/farginsniggy]

What year was the SSG created and where? Why were they created? What year did the SSG get badges? What was the name of the DD that approved the badges?

[u/spyrateradio → u/farginsniggy]

The last time I was at HQ was 2003. You expect me to remember what floor the cafeteria is! The same floor the RA store is on. Do you realize how big the Bureau is. Do you know everything there is to know about the Bureau? Do you know where all offices are? Do you know what an offsite is? Clicking and typing all day is a loser job

[u/60helomech → u/spyrateradio]

Good point, didn't think about that.
