New member seeking guidance on attaching USMC medals to dress blues.

I'm in process of framing my father's dress blues along w his burial flag and photo.  I'm not sure of the order the medals should be placed on his uniform.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.  Jim

Look up Marine Corps Order of Precedence on Google - Good Conduct is first and campaign medals are in order earned.

If you abide by the dress standards it should look something like this.

His China Service would go next to his Occupation Medal since it does not appear that he was a pre 1941 Marine and his China Service would be earned after the war.

If he was with the 4th Marine Regiment of the 6th Marine Division they were in Japan briefly at the end of the War and China until 1946.
