For US Medals at the very top of the "Pyramid of Honor" (The highest US medals awarded) lists do exist. The Medal of Honor, the highest medal awarded, has numerous lists that can be checked, as do the next highest, the Distinguished Service Cross. There are monthly payments made for life for the medal, so any number of sources would also provide a verification list. Also, a DD-214 (Discharge Certificate) would list all medals and awards received by a service member, but...

There isn't an MOS for Airborne Ranger - it would be a Special Qualification Identifier which comes after their MOS. For example, Infantry is the "11" Career Management Field. A Private coming fresh out of One Station Unit Training would be awarded the MOS 11B1O, with "11B" being the MOS, "1" being the skill level - in this case, 1 to indicate ranks Private through Specialist, and the "O" is the Special Qualification Identifier - in this case, "O" means he has...

Yes ,It is possible for you to wash your full service dress at home but must only use a moderate detergent or the colors will lighten. Hair shampoo's can be used as a detergent do to its light-moderate viscosity of detergent. The Shirt and pants can go in the washer on a normal setting.

General Orders Number 2554 Dated 14 June 1967 Date of action: 31 January 1967 This is not so much a improvement but a extention of above. Most units have web sites and list Silver Star recipients.

Neither is "better," in general anyway. Saying one or the other is better is like saying boats are better than cars. Better at what? The USMC is an invading force, "go secure this location" Marines go, it gets secured and then the Army comes in and provides permanent security, in general anyway. As far as one being considered "better" than the other it usually has to do with the USMC's record of success in many historic battles that had impossible odds against...

No, you can't. Before you report in to the post you'll be attending Basic or One Station Unit Training at, you'll report back to the MEPS station (the place where you actually signed your enlistment contract). Your recruiting office will provide you with transportation to MEPS. From there, you'll be given either a bus ticket or a plane ticket (depending on the distance). After you arrive at the airport, you'll be picked up by charter bus and taken to the post's Adjutant...

500 and 55 thousand To correct the above post, 4 bronze oak leaf clusters indicates 5 total awards of a single medal (the initial award +1 OLC for each additional award). Starting with the 6th award, a silver oak leaf cluster is worn instead (silver OLC indicating 5 previous awards). The 7th will add another bronze OLC, and so forth. Caveat, this is for the Army. The Naval services use stars instead of OLCs to indicate previous awards. ...

no I'm sure the soldier riding in the tanks WISH they were indestructible. No tank is completely invulnerable to armor piercing rounds, artillery, mortars, bombs, missiles, mines, and other anti-tank weapons, although some are more resistant than others. The ongoing competition between armor and armor-piercing weapons has been going on ever since the invention of armor. The first anti-tank weapons were developed during WW I - which is when tanks were first deployed in battle. Small cannons and large-caliber rifles were used against the early WW...

In my 8 years experience in Human Resources, specifically in the field of Recruiting/Staffing, I can testify to the fact that employers can only verify military service through a DD214. Of course through credit verification and address verification we can easily determine if falsification has been deliberatly given. But overall, the DD214 is the main source of verification. There's one other way Courts-martial convictions appear on your criminal record, and some employers run criminal records checks....
