I do not want to ask a Boot qquestion(It is one and I just sounded like one) but I need a 19 ribbon Staggered Ribbons Rack here is the story:
Me and my friend(out XO) are going to the Ball in Blues(Army)I have everything squared away except for my rack. It is so crazy I can only see seven of my ribbons the rest are covered by my lapel. I do not have a Credit Card and I really need one for myself. If you guys can give me any info please post.

I could not post in the Buy/Sell/Trade thread on the Marine Corps Forum , so I decided to start a small thread. I just need some help so I am squared away, right now I am(everything is plaec on my unifrom and my Barracks covered is perfect, shoes are shiny,brasso on everything) I just want this rack to put me over the top.

I would suggest eBay. This isn't really the appropriate place to ask this.

Me think, he think, he is funny.

First, I want you to list each and everyone of those precious little ribbons, the name and what you did to receive it, and then I will tell you where to get the rack.

I'm willing to bet, like Sgt Q. said - that there is a NO bed wetting ribbon among them?

List them out, line by line, so I can be in awe.

Probably going to just do as he always does--ask a question and then vanish for 2 days until something else pops in his mind.

I'm glad some of these posts went away; now I just wish the whole thread would follow suit.

Lol, you held up your part - I'll do the same - go see Sgt Grit.

I can't believe they give you a proficiency ribbon when you can't even spell it.

Seems like the only thing they're teaching you is how to win some ribbons.

The proof is in the pudding.....
