Ribbon attachments.

[Drill for life]

My SAI and AI don't supply us with ribbon attachments. Does your program give you and writ-up ribbon attachments? I would like to have some but we have a very small supply, does AJROTC use the torches or the leaf clusters?

We use lamps to denote how many times a ribbon has been awarded...

Cool, thank you very much. My SAI says they tear our ribbons up.

[Buffa1oso1di3r]

They do, and they break easily... that's why I just gave up on usin' them.

I only wear a silver star on my Scottish Rite ribbbon. You have to,

For some odd reason, my friend got the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, but no star...

We use Oak leaf clusters, both bronze and silver. Bronze denotes one more time earning a ribbon, and silver, five. The unit provides them.

My AJROTC knowledge isn't very deep, but I do know that AFJROTC uses Oak Leaf Clusters to denote how many times a cadet has earned a specific ribbon.

Same here, that's pretty much a standard in AFJROTC. I have seen AJROTC cadets with devices such as oak leaf clusters, but sadly have no source to site from. Most of the time, issues with uniforms, including ribbon and device wear, are covered between individual units and their HQ, so its hard to find standardized information on a lot of these topics.

Also, my unit has instituted a new policy, and I don't believe that this is happening in any of the other local units, but when cadets participate in the E2C program they get the ribbon. If they pass their wellness test, they get a seperate E2C ribbon (Same design) and it comes with a silver star on it.
