A campaign ribbon is a military decoration awarded to service members to signify participation in a specific military campaign or operation. These ribbons are typically worn on the uniform and reflect the duration and nature of the service rendered during that campaign. They can vary by country and branch of service, often featuring distinct colors and designs to represent different missions or theaters of operation. Campaign ribbons serve as a visual representation of a service member's experiences and contributions in the field.
