Kevin has found us a supplier of ribbons and in consequence, all of our ribbons (on the exception of Atlanta) will be modified.

So, this is a reminder that you should use the links that I provide for you to you ribbons as the update will show in your sig automatically. Once the changes have been finalized, we will show you where you can obtain them for your uniform.

For all new marines, or those without ribbons... feel free to enter your request here... tell me in what city your convention took place and how many of those events in that city you've done in USCM uniform.

I assign ribbons on a "per-request" basis... and I have received none so far.

Ok... half of the ribbon racks have been modified, the rest should be done shortly.... and clear your temporary internet file cache... :)

Hey, so I've been sort of absent for a while now... but, did I read your post right, in that ribbons will now be physically available for uniforms?

Author:  SGM Baldwin [ Tue Mar 18, 2008 8:15 pm ]
Post subject: 

YES! Read on... (BTW Derek, you're using the wrong link for your ribbons. Please use this: http://www.pbase.com/image/85419086/small.jpg )

Ok marines... here's some NEW & IMPROVED. First, I'd like to thank Kevin for finding a convenient way of obtaining ribbons for our uniforms... From now on, all ribbons assigned for drops or other achievement can be obtained through paradestore.com.

As you know, alll of your ribbons are stored on my PBase and can be seen here: http://www.pbase.com/sharpuscm/recipients If you go and click on your name, you'll see the names of each ribbon and what achievement it represents.

So you want to buy these ribbons and stick 'em on your chest, eh? Very simple. Take note of each ribbon you've earned and return here: http://www.pbase.com/sharpuscm/ribbons If you click on the Atlanta Colony Campaign ribbon, you'll find its colours, and best of all a SKU which you can enter at paradestore.com. Be sure to switch your search criteria to SKU when searching for it. Doing a search for the Atlanta ribbon SKU RBN16RYGORY gives us this... click on "View Details" and you're ready to add it to your shopping cart. Yes, it's that simple. Some ribbons are "flipped" meaning they are worn with a 180° turn. This helps to maximize the potential use of each multi-cloured ribbon.

You're a real combat veteran with more than one drop? Add a numeral! Numerals are available here: http://www.paradestore.com/detail.aspx?ID=555 I recommend a bronze finish.

You have an option to select "Ribbon Slide and Clutch" or "Ribbon Only". The option with clutch is for marines with one decoration and "Ribbon Only" is for decorated veterans such as Tony Leach or myself... who will need Ribon Bar Mounts.

Ribbon bar mounts are found here: http://www.paradestore.com/detail.aspx?ID=564

As per MCO P1020.34F MARINE CORPS UNIFORM REGULATIONS Chapter 5, Section 5301, paragraph 6:
Quote:
Parallel rows of ribbon bars will either be spaced 1/8 inch apart or placed together without spacing at the individual's option.



FURTHERMORE...

I would like to present to you the addition of a few ribbons in order of precedence:



Image
Valor in Adverse Service Medal
For service in uniform at a colony drop in spite of injury or illness.


Image
Minor Colony Patrol
Awarded for successful patrol of a colony of 38'000 colonists or less.


Image
Multi-Force Decoration
For previous service in a military or para-military organization other than Colonial Marines.


Image
Operations Merit of Achievement
For service in uniform at a Colonial Marines Colony Drop Operations Table exceeding one hour.


Image
Pte Chris Chulamanis Memorial Ribbon
Awarded to a marine who served at any drop in uniform in 2008.

So... if you qualify for any of the above ribbons, please let me know and I will update your digital ribbon bar.

Nice!

Now... this brings up the Dress Blues idea again...

*glances around for the thread*

BTW, I'm sorry I've been absent. Was in a car wreck, dealing with family problems, sick... the stress has been immense and the list goes on and on.

I'm back though.

Would it be possilbe to get a ribbon assigned for the Con we have here in Fargo ND. It is called Valley Con up until last year for some odd reason the went with the name - The Fargo Entertainment Expo.
Don't know why.

Dude! Sorry to hear of the bad news. Hope things are getting better!

About the Dress Blues. I've been quietly working on a finished uniform over the last few weeks or so. There have been some 11th hour revisions, most minor, some a little bigger. :wink:

I'm awaiting some deliveries to arrive before having a finished product (should be within the next couple of weeks or so). At that time I'll reveal what I'll be wearing for my USCM Dress Uniform at D-Con '08. :wink: :D
