The top ribbon is the Vietnam service ribbon. I always wore it front and top.
I was there twice on Gearing class Destroyers. Total time was a little less than 2 years. Boatswain's don't pull desk duty. They can't read. I didn't need to learn until I retired.

True that, but only a CPO would wear dress blues on a date...;)

Gotta be a cheap camera, though. I swear the gold chief's jacket is velvet and the shirt seems to have a blue tint. ;)

Bahh..any Master Corporal or Sergeant in the Canadian Airforce would have polished off the bottle of Johnnie Walker, traded the 5 bud in on a 12 of real beer,  gave the chief a haircut, and run away with the girl.

And still live to tell about it.

You's guys gotta toughen up.

LOL...Jarheads need to get out of uniform a little more often and lighten up a little.
