VT Commendation Medal

The Virginia Commendation Medal Ribbon is officially hallmarked by the U.S. Institute of Heraldry. This ribbon is awarded for an outstanding act, achievement, or exemplary services rendered with distinction by any military or civilian too, or on behalf of, the Virginia National Guard. It may be awarded to individuals who have performed periods of service in an outstanding manner above that required in the normal performance of duty. Although this award may have been authorized about the same time as the LM and BS, no documents were available to the author to support this conjecture. The ends of the ribbon are green and the middle is yellow. Virginia Commendation 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. Ribbons are unmounted and do not come with a holding bar. To purchase this ribbon for yourself or a family member's shadow box, or display case, we require a DD-214 or other valid proof that this medal was honorably awarded.
