I have a dumb question. The attached photo is the ribbons/medal I was awarded in the ArmyView attachment 128593. The green and white ribbon reflects the Army Commendation Medal. For the life of me, I can't remember what the red and white ribbon represents. I can't find it on the internet. I would have received it in 1978. Anyone know what it represents??
It should be written on your DD214.

The Mississippi Magnolia Medal Ribbon is officially hallmarked by the U.S. Institute of Heraldry. This award is for outstanding service or extraordinary achievement on behalf of the Mississippi National Guard by any member or former member of the Mississippi National Guard; the NG of any other US states, territories, or possessions; or any US Armed Forces. Awards should be restricted to the recognition of achievements and service clearly outstanding and unmistakably exceptional when compared to similar achievements of personnel of like rank and responsibilities. On March 24th, 1936 this award was proposed in SB 426, as recorded in Ch 217, and approved by the state legislature. The ribbon has red ends with a white middle and is ready to be worn. Mississippi Magnolia Medal Ribbons are made with the highest government standards and are US Military approved. All ribbons of the US Military are made in the USA by US Veterans. Ribbons are unmounted and do not come with a holding bar. To purchase this ribbon for yourself or a family member's shadow box, or display case, we require a DD-214 or other valid proof that this medal was honorably awarded.
