    The Stetson is not earned. It can be worn by any personnel assigned to a Cavalry unit.

    If a Cavalry Squadron does a Spur ride and you are allowed to do it/complete it, then yes you can earn your silver spurs.

    Either way, as neither are an official uniform item, they are only worn while assigned to a Cavalry unit and only at the units discretion.

    Neither the Stetson, nor Spurs require a specific MOS.

    There is no one set standard for the Spur Ride.

    Each Squadron sets their own standards

    So it will be up to what your Squadron's SOP is

    No I don't think so
