Like the sarge, ribbons, ribbons. Damn few mean much. In the past 15 years I just give up on knowing what a chestulll of ribbons means. Attended class most of the time ribbon, never late much for reville ribbon, re enlistment bonus ribbon and God knows only what ribbon. Ribbon makers must be making a fortune.. Bad enough when they

came out with the Good Conduct Ribbon but this is carring things a bit far as of lately. One needs a complete scorecard.

I may have told this before and if I did please bear with me.

 

My bother, a Navy Lifer, participated in the Invasion of North Africa,

Sicily and Italy and then their ship was sent back to Brooklyn, NY Navy

Yard for some repairs etc.

 

Before they left the ship,they were issued the appropriate ribbons for

this action. As they were walking through the Navy Yard,they saw some

real young guys wearing the same ribbons and they knew Damn Right

Well they were not a part of the Destroyer Squadron so they asked

them where they got the ribbons. The youngs guys said all you have to do

is go up to the Ships Stores(PX) and buy them!!!

 

Another Lifer,a Gunners Mate ripped the ribbons off one guys shirt and then

pushed him off the pier. Knowing the guy in the water could climb onto a nearby

raft the guys from my bother's ship kept on walking up to their favorite bar. Until

they left about a week later there were no more ribbons around
