Unknown foreign decoration

[edit]

Can anybody identify the ribbon on the lower right (the "last" one)? claudevsq (talk) 20:26, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You can find all of the ribbons up to the last five (reading left to right, upper to lower) on the official U.S. Air Force chart. That chart shows the ribbons in order of priority and, as you might expect, that is the exact order in which General Mosely has his ribbons mounted. Wikipedia's page (Awards and decorations of the United States Air Force) is not organized by priority and omits the ribbons applicable to all services — perhaps it could be improved.
The last five presumably are foreign ribbons. I think the first of them may be the cited French Order of National Merit with an ornament, a rosette perhaps, not shown in the Wikipedia image of the ribbon but seen here. Of the next three, one may be the cited U.A.E. Military Medal, 1st Class, perhaps the leftmost on the bottom row, because it uses the colors of the U.A.E. flag, but this is only a guess. Can anyone identify the two middle ribbons next to it?
Found one: The rose colored one with vertical white stripes left, center and right appears to be the Knight Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire ribbon. —Blanchette (talk) 07:01, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The last one, mentioned by claudevsq looks like it could be the ribbon representing the United Nations Special Services Medal, but I don't know what the ornament may be. (Looks sorta like the face of a terrier, is more likely a repeated emblem in a triangular pattern, but the resolution on the high res photo is not quite sufficient to be sure.) This article makes no mention of any service by the general to the U.N., however. I had fun hunting-up this info -- perhaps someone else will have fun completing/correcting this inventory! —Blanchette (talk) 08:06, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
On the newest photo, we can see that the ribbon is light grey, with two white stripes at each end. The ornament may represent something medical, see the winding snakes... claudevsq (talk) 22:25, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It's not the Republic of Singapore Meritorious Service Medal (Military). That ribbon looks different... claudevsq (talk) 20:59, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, SICOFAA... like I thought... but before, the ribbon of this medal was a lighter blue, I think... but the ornament is the same. claudevsq (talk) 11:12, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Order of the British Empire

[edit]

He cannot use the Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire 'KBE' post-nominal unless he holds UK citizenship. Regards Nford24 (Want to have a chat?) 05:55, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
