Statute VI: Medals and Ribbons

---

The Grand Army of the Republic seeks to reward its personnel in a myriad of ways, one of which is the awarding of various medals and ribbons to recognize achievement and commitment to the organization. These medals may be displayed both as a ribbon rack in the forum signature and on the individual's Habbo character. Any individual claiming to have medals that they have not been awarded will be issued disciplinary action per Statute II.

Personnel may wear the highest medal they have from either category on their Habbo character. For example, if an individual has the GC, MP, CS, and MD, they may choose to either display the CS or MD. All medal colors are non-HC and no HC substitutions may be made.

Ribbon racks shall be arranged in rows of 3, placing highest to lowest from left to right. If the number of medals an individual has is not divisible by 3, the remainder of the medals unable to be placed in a full row should be placed on the bottom row and centered with respect to the full rows of 3. At this point in time, no devices may be placed on ribbons to denote the reception of multiple of that medal.
