Military ribbons can be worn as decoration by any person; you dont have to be in the military to wear one of these. Military ribbons present a persons style with patriotic fashion. The Good Conduct ribbon is awarded to any enlisted member of the United States military who completes three consecutive years of "honorable and faithful service". Such service implies that a standard enlistment was completed without any non-judicial punishments, disciplinary infractions, or court martial offenses.
