Corrected entry: In the scene where James Caan goes to the funeral of his friend, he takes off his CIB and places it on the flag draped coffin. When you next see him outside on the steps of the church, his CIB is back in place over his medals. If he was so willing to give his badge to his dead friend, I doubt he would pick it up off the coffin and place it back on his uniform.

Correction: When moving a coffin for Military Honors, nothing should be on the coffin. Also a lot of military personnel take their badges off to put it on the coffin of a deceased friend. We then put it back on when the coffin is being moved so we can show our respect for Military Honors.
In this particular case, Hazard removed it forcibly from his uniform blouse, thereby destroying the backing on the pin, making it difficult (if not impossible) to replace on his uniform.
