ItemCo16527 Posted August 12, 2017 Share #1 Posted August 12, 2017 Good afternoon, all. Just picked up this really nice set of ribbons on eBay to an FMF sailor. Interestingly, the individual bars were pinned to a sheet of stiff plastic - probably to make it easier to attach to the uniform in one go, rather than having to attach each row separately while trying to keep them all nice and straight. In addition to the Fleet Marine Force device on the Vietnam Service Ribbon, he also saw service in Korea and China. http://imgur.com/4kipEyf http://imgur.com/4kipEyf http://imgur.com/Sgu2Zfx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvmhm Posted August 22, 2017 Share #2 Posted August 22, 2017 You need to post the pictures directly to the forum...posting on outside servers renders them useless if that service ever goes away. We still use backers for ribbons...it does help with alignment if they're on separate bars, and it also keeps them flat against your shirt so they don't sag.
