WV Achievement Medal

The West Virginia Achievement Medal Ribbon is officially hallmarked by the U.S. Institute of Heraldry. This is awarded to a member of the West Virginia National Guard for service or act(s), performed on or after July 1st, 1983, that are of sufficient importance to merit recognition of a lesser degree than that required for the MSM.

On the ends of the ribbon it is the color green measuring 3/16 inch, followed by a white stripe that is 1/16 inch wide, then red stripe that is 1/16 inch, and a white middle measuring 11/16 inch. West Virginia Achievement Medal Ribbons are made with the highest government standards and are US Military approved. All ribbons of the US Military are made in the USA.
