Title: General Army Combat Recognition RIBBON Post by: frenchie on January 06, 2005, 02:29:06 AM Troopers,
Congress Act H.R. 4200, Sec 566 is seeking a generic RIBBON for all combat soldiers, except for infantrymen and medic. Please go to the political section at that 11th ACVVC sight for my detail information. :x Frenchie Title: General Army Combat Recognition RIBBON Post by: Anonymous on January 06, 2005, 11:27:26 AM Well as the highest KIA rate MOS for vietnam is the 11E 27% it would seem that being an 11B was safer maybe they should get the ribbon and we the CAB.
