USMC Combat Action Ribbon Patch — The Ribbon That Speaks for Itself

No Marine wears the Combat Action Ribbon who didn’t earn it the hardest way possible — under enemy fire.

The Combat Action Ribbon (CAR) is awarded to members of the U.S. Marine Corps and Navy who have actively participated in ground or surface combat against enemy forces. It is one of the most respected decorations in the Marine Corps because it represents the most fundamental experience of the combat Marine — being in a firefight and engaging the enemy. Unlike other awards that may be earned through cumulative service, the CAR is earned in a single violent moment or sustained engagement. Marines who wear it have been tested in the ultimate crucible, and the ribbon is a quiet but powerful statement of combat experience.

Perfect For: Combat Action Ribbon recipients, Marine combat veterans, Navy and Marine Corps combat decorations collectors, and military awards enthusiasts.

Earned in fire — the ribbon that needs no explanation.
