SAMedals Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I have seen conflicting images and illustrations of how the SA Ad Astra Decoration Ribbon should be suspended - Can anyone help here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley1965 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 You have it mounted right. Here's a ribbon chart... Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAMedals Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 Thanks for the chart - but please see a scanned picture of a SADF issued certificate and you'll see that the ribbon is suspended in the opposite direction - as I say there are conflicting ideas on this.

Ed_Haynes Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 The Medal Yearbook shows the stripes as running from lower left to upper right (like your certificate). But, then, the MYB is very often very wrong.These pesky diagonal ribbons! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley1965 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Here's the medal from the SAAF website. Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NPGilbert Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 To add to the confusion.The medals chart that i have indicates that the ribbons stripes run from bottom left to top right.The same as the certificate. I'll try and find out more to solve this interesting discrepancy. Never picked it up before.Enjoy !!! Norman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
