If that is the french fourragère, color seems to be wrong, not only is he wearing it incorrectly but he would not be authorized to wear it as the Fighting 5th Marines were in Nam at the time. Only those currently assigned to the regiment would be authorized to wear the decoration and in the Nam we were in combat the entire period the regiment was there.

When wearing uniforms with ribbons, Carter often wears an Army Good Conduct Medal ribbon (which is awarded for serving at least 2 years or one year in combat). This is probably an homage to actor Frank Sutton's WWII Army service. However, he does not wear a Marine Corps Good Conduct Ribbon, which is authorized for 3 years of active service. As a Gunnery Sergeant and Drill Instructor, he would have served over 3 years active as a Marine - hence, earning the award

thats actually another error. By the beginning of the series, Carter had been in the Marine Corps for 16 years, which means he would have entered the service in 1948, cut off date for the WWII victory medal was Dec 31 1946, thereby not making him eligible for that particular medal.
The error that I originally posted about was...the Korean presidential unit citation is senior to the united nations service medal and would thereby be placed BEFORE the UN service medal on the rack. Im surprised because whoever was in charge of continuity of stuff like that got everything else right in order of ribbon seniority but dropped the ball on that

Your first post and it's spam? I don't think so....further, the pic doesn't exactly match your listed 'ethnicity'....and if you are 'still in service' you must be the OLDEST E-1 Private in the Corps.
Goodbye spamturd.

A couple things jump right out at me when I look at this pic. First, Pyle has his cover jammed so far down onto his melon that it loses its shape. And second....well...uhhhh....he's gay.....
