About this ribbon

Authorized 3 March 1984; normally effective 1 April 1984. Manual explicitly allows applications for earlier graduates, so 1 April 1984 is not an absolute exclusion of earlier service.

Catalog associations: Coast Guard. Current award reference. Branch associations are browsing guidance; other service awards may also appear in a veteran’s record.

Service years and award dates

Years help surface possibilities. A date overlap does not show that someone earned an award. Some date rules describe completion, specific operations or retroactive eligibility, rather than a universal service window.
