Gen. Wainwright's Ribbon Rack Question

I'm doing research on Gen. Wainwright's ribbons and awards. There is one that definitely perplexes me. Please see below in red. I thought it would be the Philippine Independence Ribbon, but the number of stripes don't exactly match.

 

Anyone know what it could be?

Yup, Philippine Medal of Valor. Out of order, should be in the bottom row.. But who's going to tell a 4-star POW MoH recipient his ribbons are out of order. Cool to see he also has the NYS Conspicuous Service Cross, should have a device though.
