WW2 Pacific-Papuan forces decoration?

I was looking through my grandfather's papers and found this letter authorizing the Papuan Forces decoration.  Any idea what that looks like? I can't find anything on it.  His ribbon bars are pictured. I have his Distinguished Flying Cross and Air Service Medal, but I think a few Bronze Stars are missing.  Not sure what the white ribbon with red edges is, or the individual blue one with brass edges.  He was a Pearl Harbor survivor.

The blue ribbon with the brass border is the Presidential Unit Citation. I think the other you asked about MAY BE the China Service Medal with a faded yellow ribbon and red stripes.

Distinguished Unit Citation (DUC). It was renamed as the Presidential Unit Citation later. I  think the orders refer to the "Papuan Forces, United States Army, Southwest Pacific Area" as the unit that received the DUC, not to an actual "Papuan Forces" decoration or medal.
