In the US Military, a "ribbon" is worn on the informal dress uniform, representing the medal. It is of the same color as the medal. There are also ribbons authorized for which no medal is used. In a dress uniform they are typically worn on the right side, while the medals are worn over the heart. You would never wear the medal and the ribbon representing the medal at the same time. Examples would be various unit citations or skill awards. The Navy issues marksmanship ribbons rather than badges.
