I've been in since 2000. I've heard nothing about September 11th ribbons. Plus I don't see why we would get ribbons for being in the military on September 11th. I mean, it's not like we did anything. Yes we got attacked. But what did we do that day to earn ourselves a ribbon. I mean they blew up some buildings and killed lots of people, and for this I get 2 ribbons? I don't see that happening. The only other ribbons I should be getting someday is the Iraqi Freedom one, and Enduring Freedom one once they come out. Oh and also an overseas ribbon after i've been in Japan awhile. Right now I have the National Defense, Overseas Expeditionary, Good Conduct, PUC, GWOT, and I'll have a NAM here before I leave for Japan. Promotions every semester? Geez, I was a private for 6 months, then a PFC for 8, then a LCpl for over 2 years. I wish we got ribbons and promotions every semester. I still to this day will never forget when an ROTC runt came up to me in Pensacola and asked why I didn't salute him because he was a warrant officer. Man whatta fruit! But just wondering, do u plan on joining the military? If so what branch? Anyway don't take anything I say harshly, I'm not trying to degrade you, it's just most ROTC people I meet think they are the sh!t because they have all these decorations and a high rank, but in reality the military is not as easy.
