Vietnam Service Medal Ribbon

Vietnam Service Medal Ribbon

The Vietnam Service Medal (VSM) is a decoration of the U.S. military presented to personnel of any branch of the U.S. Armed Forces who performed military service during the Vietnam War and meet specific qualifications laid out by the United States Department of Defense. To be eligible service members must have completed 30 consecutive days or 60 non-consecutive days of service relating to direct support of ground operations or maritime service directly aiding military operations within specific regions of the Republic of Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Thailand between the dates of November 15, 1961 - March 28, 1973 and April 29, 1975 - April 30, 1975. U.S. Air Force members who flew in missions over Vietnam Airspace are also eligible for the award.

The Vietnam Service Medal replaces the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal (AFEM), which was awarded for service in Vietnam from 1961 to 1965. Service stars are permitted as attachments worn on the Vietnam Service Medal for recipients who participated in multiple campaigns during the Vietnam War. The Arrowhead Device is permitted to be worn on the medal for those involved in an aerial or amphibious assault.

Q&A

Is it possibe to get vietnam service medal ribbon with 2 bronze stars and one silver star attached? Bronze/Silver/Bronze
Yes! There are a couple of way to get that done. You can always place the order over the phone at (877)-653-9577 and make that request. Alternately, you can add the ribbon and devices to your shopping cart and leave us a request in the Order Comments section, noting that you'd like the devices attached priori to shipping.
Does service at Kadena afb during Vietnam qualify you for a Vietnam service ribbon?
That's a great question, one that we do not have an answer for. It would seem like you would qualify, but we cannot say for sure.
Is there a ribbon for serving during VN but not having served in country?
The only awards that we can think of that are given out for that time-period, but not specifically designated as a Vietnamese award are the National Defense Service and the Armed Forces Expeditionary.
Assuming the Vietnam Service ribbon does not come with mounting bar with pins, is the mounting bar with pins available for purchase
Hi John! Yes, we do have that available for purchase. The mount for a single ribbon can be found here: https://www.usamm.com/products/1-ribbon-medal-mount
