Lep said it all. On the back of my shadow box is a write up of all the itty bitty pins and such. You gotta turn it front to back a couple of times, but it is all there.

Well, not that I like to be wrong, especially when I post something here. But in an effort to fully disclose I should say I now realize that I ordered the wrong ribbon, just one. The 2nd ribbon I have in that display case pic is not what I thought it was supposed to be. I guess it's a good thing I found out now but I still feel like a fool. I thought it was a NUC but it's not. My mistake, it's a Joint Comm not a NUC. A member PMed me to let me know they were out of order and when I looked them up to see, or I went to check them at another site I realized I got the wrong ribbon. Doh

Well done. It's the cases that are put together like that that really mean something later on.

One suggestion....inside the case someplace, or on the reverse, type out your personal history and ensure it remains attached somehow. Not only does this 'personalize' the case for you and your loved ones, but 50 or a 100 years from now, will be a nice bit of history for a military collector. Remember the old saying "A man lives forever if his name is remembered".

Thank you. That's a good idea to add to it.

And, my overseas, and sea service are out of order. Man, I really screwed that up, I'm like a soup sandwich, haha. I apologize for the error.
