Things are coming along great, but a couple little things.
1. There are no multiple awards of the Combat Action Ribbon (but the large stars look good).
2. I don't see any multiples on the Navy Com no matter what number I put in.
3. I only see one bronze star on the AFEM no matter what number I put in.
4. Still waiting for Navy marksmanship ribbons. :wink:

Keep up the good work!

These may be a problem with the selection form I think. They both work as intended for me... but that doesn't mean they're working for you. Could i ask you to make a rack, press your "back" button, change a number or two, press submit. If they change, cool. If not, do the same only press the "reset" button at the bottom of the selection form before you make the second rack and see if that makes a difference. What browser are you using?

I tried with both Mozilla and IE.
with IE, using the back button would reset the rack even though the box remained checked (if I didn't uncheck and recheck the box, the ribbon would not show up when re-building the rack).
With Mozilla, it all worked as intended, but I saw no appurtanences for the NCM.
I built a rack with every ribbon that would have an appurtanence and they all worked except for the above mentioned NCM and the Joint Commendation Medal. Neither of those showed any, while the Army DSM showed a star instead of an oak leaf.

Ugh... I was confusing the Navy Commendation Medal with the Navy Good Conduct Medal... hence I have been tearing my hair out because I was too lazy (and headstrong) to READ THE DAMNED LABELS UNDER THE RIBBONS! Sorry... I'll fix the NCM.

Could someone see if they can get me a refund for the last twenty minutes of my life? lol

Update:
1. According to a number of sources, the Combat Action Ribbon does receive 5/16" stars for subsequent awards..

2. Navy Commendation Medal fixed

3. Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal now shows multiple stars.

4. Navy Marksmanship badges have been added. (although the S and E devices need to be added.)

My bad on the CAR, I was confusing one award PER OPERATION with one award overall. I will now eat my humble pie.
