SC Governor's Unit Citation

The Governor’s Unit Citation Ribbon is officially hallmarked by the U.S. Institute of Heraldry. This unit award is presented for exceptionally meritorious performance by units and organizations of the South Carolina National Guard while serving in any military capacity. The unit must display such outstanding devotion and superior performance of exceptionally difficult tasks as to set it apart from and above other units with similar missions and under similar circumstances. On January 1st, 1970 this award was also authorized by regulation; however, design and issue of the ribbon did not occur until several years later. The ribbon has a diagonal stripe pattern of blue and white ¼ wide stripes. Governor’s Unit Citation 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.
