I see what appears to be the Silver Star, the Purple Heart and maybe a Meritorious Service Medal (which is incidentally awarded to VERY few enlisted men). This guy’s a real peach. To say nothing of the fact that he’s wearing them inappropriately.

This guy is a little different than the average faker. One, there’s no question about his rank, he was a senior chief, and two, he apparently did the rate the MSM, which as you note is not a common award for enlisted. I will note however that when I retired a few years ago it was becoming much more common to see MSMs on senior enlisted, usually end of tour CMCs.

Maybe I’m crazy, but don’t ribbons go on the left, and medals on the right?

Oh, that’s in UNIFORM.

Civies? Leave’em at home, dork.

(no, not you a dork, this guy)
