The official website for the Combat Action Ribbon is typically found on the U.S. Navy's or U.S. Marine Corps' official websites, as the ribbon is awarded by these branches of the military. You can find detailed information about the criteria, history, and application process for the Combat Action Ribbon on their respective sites, such as navy.mil or marines.mil. Additionally, resources like the Department of Defense's official site may also provide relevant details.

The Combat Action Ribbon is a personel award, not a unit award. A marine or sailor with the btln may have received it, but it's not given out to a entire btln.
I don't know if the entire battalion received the Combat Action Ribbon but I do know that H Co (redesignated L Co) did receive the CAR. Most members of the battalion also received their Combat Action Ribbon during Operation Iraqi Freedom I. They battalion has since returned to Iraq in September/October of 2007. All but a handful (those few who remained behind at Camp 15) of Marines in 3/23 received the Combat Action Ribbon for Desert Storm. Most members of the battalion also received their Combat Action Ribbon during Operation Iraqi Freedom I. They battalion has since returned to Iraq in September/October of 2007.
