Kurt_E Posted January 5, 2018 Share #228 Posted January 5, 2018 Some shots from "Presidio" (1988). Allmighty Sean Connery as LTC Caldwell. Interesting to see officers wearing marksmanship badges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patches Posted January 20, 2018 Share #231 Posted January 20, 2018 Its actually the Navy MUC Right you are, came out in 1967 so they did a good job there in the depiction. Still looking with no success for of Darren McGavin (Drake) and his rack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt_E Posted January 23, 2018 Share #232 Posted January 23, 2018 Some screenshots from 1986 awesome movie "Dress Gray". Ribbons on right side are in wrong precedence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefighter Posted January 24, 2018 Share #233 Posted January 24, 2018 From SNL. The actor is suppose to be the White House doctor. Looks like they did a pretty good job. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt_E Posted February 28, 2018 Share #234 Posted February 28, 2018 Jensen Ackles as Col. Winchester in one of "Supernatural" episodes (Season 8, ep.20). All messed up for 1951. Fails are: Colonels insignia on shirt's collar (think he got USMC or Navy shirt), NDSM ribbon (and wrong order of precedence I believe), merrowed edged SSI.

patches Posted March 1, 2018 Share #238 Posted March 1, 2018 And the nameplate!! Couldn't happen in 1951 too That's right, plastic nameplates of this type start be seen starting in the 56-57 period, these plastic types being among a few different types of plates, fobs and tags in use, till the Army put the Whoa Nelly on them and standardized the plastic type as thee type for then on.

joeclown Posted June 3, 2018 Share #244 Posted June 3, 2018 Might be wrong but isn't Gunny Highways ribbons a bit out of precedence as regards to the Navy Achievement, Navy commendation, Purple Heart and the Bronze Star? And also from what is said in the movie about his conduct, I don't see that there should have been that many stars on the Good Conduct Ribbon.

And also from what is said in the movie about his conduct, I don't see that there should have been that many stars on the Good Conduct Ribbon. The ribbons are in the correct order for when the movie was set (1983). The Purple Heart wasn't elevated above the Achievement Medals until 1985.
