About this ribbon

2019 Table 32 treats both issues as one award; same service-ribbon design. 1919–20 medal issued under 1921-12-29 order; previous 1915 recipients used bronze star instead.

Catalog associations: Navy, Marine Corps. Historical or discontinued award retained for veterans and families. 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.

Research notes and remaining questions

Medallion issues are distinct; one ribbon catalog record preserves both qualifying windows.
