    Well...

    It's been a several decades since my time but if you did rate it should be on your DD214?

    FYI...your profile could stand some more info per protocol here.

    Carry on...

    It's not on my dd214 , the ribbon wasn't estblished until 1987 , but from what I think I read was it may be retroactive . That kinda what I was wondering.

    Well sh!tfire....shows you how much I know.
    I didn't think about the retro-activeness of the ribbon either.
    Guess I didn't have enough coffee to think clearly.

    I was going to post the same link this morning but you beat to it.
    I used that link and got my DD-214 updated info some time ago.

    Good luck OP...carry on.

    Yes, I believe you rate it, as long as it was awarded 'retroactively'. Not all awards were.
