Now i have never recieved that ribbon i actually bought it myself. So idk if they issue them anymore. Its also not in my iperms either. I was given the national defense ribbon and the army service ribbon when i graduated basic and AIT. So my question is....are we allowed to wear that ribbon if it wasnt issued? I was also told that we can wear the 5 year service ribbon too. Thats gold and black. But like the other one...its not been issued nor is it in my iperms. Just didnt want to do anything wrong so im asking. Can we wear the basic training ribbon? 2019-07-07T23:37:35-04:00 SGT Private RallyPoint Member 4789874 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>So i have been told that we can wear the basic training ribbon on our ASU.

I recommend you discuss this with your leadership and also be sure your ARB is updated with any State awards you may be eligible to wear.

You have to follow the same order of precedence in AR 670-1 &amp; DA PAM 670-1. Make sure that the ribbon is on your ERB with the awards you have been authorized for wear.
