Earlier this week at the Target in Milford I spotted a guy open carrying while I was leaving. It looked like it might have been accidental. His winter coat pulled up on his right side and resting on top of gun. I was going to mention it, but he was on the phone and I didnt want to interrupt.
Today at the Which Wich shop on Montgomery Rd two guys who appeared to be firearms instructors were OCing while eating. They had patches on their shirts that said things like "instructor" "certified ghosts" and "calibre press". One was wearing what looked like a CCW badge on his belt. I google Calibre Press and they are a firearms traing org . Their calendar says they are in cinci today to train Hamilton County LEOs.
spotted 3 OCers this week.

Re: spotted 3 OCers this week.
Could still be LEO. I can get a badge that says POLICE OFFICER and clip it on my belt and wear it around the state. As long as it's not my agency issued badge then I'm breaking no laws and no agency rules. Now, there's approximately 963 reasons why this is a horribly bad idea in most contexts. The most legitimate reason for doing so would be a LEO working an off duty security job outside their jurisdiction. I can think of no reason why a LEO couldn't be a firearms instructor on the side and wear a generic police badge while doing so. Not my MO but to each his own.
Or, yeah, it could be a whacker badge.

Debonair or debutante look?... Brownies wear sashes with badges too.

Let my aim be true and my hand faster
than those who would seek to destroy me.
Grant me victory over my foes and those who wish to do harm to me and mine.
Let not my last thought be 'If I only had my gun."
And Lord, if today is truly the day you call me home
Let me die in a pile of empty brass."
