Unable to Obtain the Black Helicopter Badge

For some unknown reason, I cannot obtain this badge even though my bar shows it full and complete. I have a few other toons with this same issue with this badge. All of them are Blue/Hero side. Not sure if I need to go red side/villain to fully get this badge as I only went to PVP zone in Warburgh to stand next to the black helicopter and logged off there. The bar would fill but no badge ever awarded. Anyone out there know if this is a bug or is there something else I need to do to get this badge complete? Thanks.

you have to be a full villain or rogue to actually be awarded that badge (there are a few others like that as well)

There are dayjobs which, while you can earn credit towards them as a vigilante, you cannot actually recieve until you go villain or rogue. Once you return to hero or vigilante, you will retain those badges, though with different names (for example, the Black Helicopter dayjob badge is called PILOT for red alignments and GROUNDED for blue alignments).
