***What the hell are those ribbons for if they never served!?***

FYI, Carmona has the SF tab, Combat Medical Badge, Purple Heart and Bronze Star, I believe with a V device. He was a SF medic in Vietnam.

Here is a good Jeopardy question: What are the seven uniformed services? (Now, can you name them? Googling is not allowed...) ;-)

Four ribbons/medals. What about the other five rows?

Off the top of my head - and I admit to swagging some answers - Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard, Army NG, Air NG. I do not like to include the USCG because - unless war is declared by Congress - the USCG is now part of Homeland Security and not DoD.

Alright, after my answer, I googled it and all I have to say is - you've got to be kidding me!

NOAA Commissioned Corps, Public Health Services, all the other folks with guns.

Coasties are Dept of Transportation IIRC.
