Just wondering something: none of the ribbons match up with the names of the awards. Wouldn't it make more sense to put the ribbon referenced next to its name, instead of the way it is currently?
Sorry about not signing that last one. RedNovember 22:44, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
I hate to say it, but I have to disagree. Countless changes that are official and in use are in the ICL's alone right now. They are in practice and in use throughout the nation, and no one is treating them as illegal. I do not think it is the place of Wikipedia to document personal issues with the legality of what National is doing. The ribbon wear, along with the flag patch, the grade insignia on the BDU cover for senior members, and a dozen other changes are official, at least for the time being. -- OuroborosCobra ( talk) 18:52, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Evil Merlin, when you say "As the documented M39-1 update is in effect till at least 01/10/2008 Reverting back to as documented," can you explain what you mean? Unless there's something different (and newer) than we've discussed above, I'm missing where you see the expiration date of 01/10/2008. Where, other than the letters we have above-referenced, is the change updated? I'm asking because I could have missed something somewhere, but unless there's something other than the so-called Interim Change Letters (which were not published as ICL's), there's nothing unexpired. Because the letters themselves are (as we've discussed above) arguable, we've decided that we should keep the reference here intentionally vague until there is an official, CAPR5-4-compliant change to the regulation.

I feel that the information in this section is disproportionally large compared to the information in the other sections of this article. It might be enough for the Medal of Valor to merit its own page. scetoaux ( talk) 03:30, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
I've done some major reconstruction on this article tonight. I think all the old sections are there; will check later. Fightin' Phillie ( talk) 01:34, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
What happened? I think it was better organized when it was split into senior members and cadet ribbons. 72.74.99.134 ( talk) 00:25, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
Just wanted to let you all know that I am working on a major reworking of the article. You can see my progress here. I'm trying to be very systamatic about things and will make my way through slowly and surely, but would love any suggestions others may have.-- dave-- 02:29, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
Just throwing in my ideas: I think there should be a section on badges of the Civil Air Patrol, too. 72.74.113.120 ( talk) 19:15, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
With a simple, paint-rendered version of the BMV ribbon like this, would we be able to get around the fact that these are not PD US Military awards? It seems that any design so simple that a few boxes on MSPaint can reproduce it should not be copyrightable, but I'm certainly no expert.-- dave-- 13:58, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
Well...I've made a bold edit to cleanup several sections of this article. I have been working on it in my sandbox, but thought I'd at least get the decorations, senior PD, and aerospace ed awards put in the article before I finished cleaning up the rest. Let me know what you think.-- dave-- 14:28, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
