army medal and ribbons

[Krissy]

I am trying to identify this medal and these ribbons. The only one I found on a google search was the green and white arm commendation ribbon in line 2.

Thanks for your response, but most of them are not on there.

Nothing it is blank.

I have searched all over the internet, but no luck

These look like ROTC ribbons, not Army, please look at the link I provided.

Thank you, yes they do look like ROTC, but it doesn't say what each one was for. I know he entered the army about 1963, as a Second Lieutenant on the air defense board at Fort Bliss. He also was sent to Germany and Japan for awhile.
Maybe the medal is ROTC too.
Thanks everyone for your help, so kind!

It looks like a mixture of ribbons mainly from ROTC programs, the first one is a Scabbard and Blade ribbon. You also have a Warrior Flight Award Ribbon, a Pershing Rifles Membership Ribbon, a Gold Valor Award and perhaps a United Nations Service Ribbon. You can't limit your search to strictly military and/or to one specific branch of the military. Search Civil Air Patrol, Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine ROTC and JRROTC programs. The first image (Ribbon with Medal) could be from any club or society, i.e., Rotary, Lions, hard to say, it doesn't look military to me but, it could also be an ROTC deal.

For the ROTC (Vanguard) matches that you find, locate the number beneath the ribbon and do a specific search, i.e., Vanguard Ribbon 3001. That is how you may find what the specific award was for.

I have to agree on that, with the exception for the drug interdiction ribbon.

You are correct about the Army Comm. Medal, but the others? I do not know.
