There is only a ribbon and no medal for the Presidential Unit Citation, since it is awarded to an entire unit rather than to an individual. However, anyone serving in the unit at the time of the award is authorized to wear the Presidential Unit Citation ribbon permanently. Others who serve in the unit at any time later can wear it only while assigned to that unit.
In the Army and Air Force, the ribbon is blue with a gold wreath around it.
The Navy and Marine ribbon is blue, yellow, and red horizontal stripes.
The actual award is a streamer of the same color attached to the unit's flag.

It doesn't work that way.

If they serve in a unit when it is awarded the Presidential Unit Citation, then they wear that award at all times, regardless of what unit they're in.However, if neither of these is applicable, then it may not be worn, whether the service member is a combat veteran or not.
