Campaign stars
Upon reviewing a few dozen records, this was a common error.

Every Iraq or Afghanistan Campaign Medal (and it's ribbon) must have AT LEAST ONE campaign star affixed.

SSG Unger, as a former 71L before the MOS was converted to a 42 series, I have never heard anyone using the term "Reg Nazis" to assist other service members how to utilize AR 670-1 (Wear & Appearance of Army Uniforms). As a fellow NONCOM (Non-Commissioned Officer) I would advice you & please pass this along to your fellow NONCOMs & other enlisted personnel as well not to utilize this term. The Adjutant General's Corps (AG) is a professional branch of the United States Army, this branch has been around since the Army was formed in 16 June 1775. They are not "Nazis" or any other form of term that might be used by current or future soldiers. You ARE NONCOMs we lead from the front, you correct others in a professional manner not to insult them or belittle them no matter what rank they might be wearing. I always had a copy of AR 670-1 on my clipboard if anyone ever questioned me why I was correcting them for a minor mistake that they might had on their uniform. I realize many times the AG Corps is informed first before any other branch is aware of changes & with the up tempo in the Army, troops are rarely aware of the many changes as well as their change of command.

The other one that drives me nuts is seeing the Armed Forces Reserve Medal with no devices...
