Can prior service wear awards from their previous branch on their Army service uniform? What literature would have the answer?

Going to go out on a MOSTLY certain limb here and say "yes".

My sergeant and I (army) received Navy Achievement Medals while we were overseas, and we were both permitted to wear our navy ribbons on our racks.

The Major is right, when in doubt check AR 670-1.

Yes. DA Pam 670-1, para. 20-5 provides order of precedence.

That is right, since the Army GCM was issued first, it came before my AF GCM.
