Re: CIB Regs

I've recently returned from Iraq after a year in country. I am an infantryman; it is my primary MOS. The brigade that I was assigned to was restructured from a SAB (separate armored brigade) to a BCT. Since the unit was primarily composed of tankers (19k), infantrymen were assigned in order to plus up the ranks.
Ok, herein lies my problem. I served my year in combat; but since I was assigned to an armor unit, I was awarded the Combat Action Badge, not the coveted CIB. There must be some cracks in the regs because I've fallen through them. When the Army designed the CAB they did not intend for it to go 11Bs. Any ideas on what I can do to convert my CAB to a CIB?
