Operational Distinguishing Device
I just read your 2014 message on "Template talk:Ribbon devices". Did you ever get a solution? --Mox La Push (talk) 05:15, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
- @Mox La Push: Thank you for checking. I don't remember who helped me or when, but if you check User:Morriswa/My userboxes#Military ribbons I earned, you will see what the ribbon looks like. Morriswa (Charlotte Allison) (talk) 12:29, 17 August 2018 (UTC)
- You're welcome. I did pretty much the same thing as you since the template hasn't been edited to properly place the ODD and right now I don't know the code well enough to do it myself. BTW, how did a squid get a Coast Guard MUC? I know it happens, I'm just curious about the back story. --Mox La Push (talk) 03:03, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
- I literally laughed out loud when I read your question. I was on a counter-drug deployment to the Caribbean Sea and the East Pacific onboard my first ship, USS Gettysburg (CG-64). We had a Coast Guard law enforcement detachment onboard. The detachment got the ribbon, so they authorized our whole crew to get it, too.

- Thanks for sharing your story with me. It was awfully nice of those passengers to get y'all a pretty new ribbon. I'm glad you enjoyed my question. --Mox La Push (talk) 23:28, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
- You're welcome. I served 14 years on active duty (2002-2016). I probably have other stories to share. If you look at User:Morriswa/My OCONUS travel, you will see what places my two ships visited. Morriswa (Charlotte Allison) (talk) 02:40, 19 August 2018 (UTC)
