Scumbag.

GCM's are awarded every 3 years for good conduct. His "6" add up.

Lindy, you should know that as SOF support.

Agree with your last sentence...... :thumbsup:

The Navy, in its effort to be different from everyone else, awards them every 4 years.

The Good Conduct Medal is awarded to any active-duty enlisted member of the United States military who completes three (or, in the Navy, four) consecutive years of "honorable and faithful service"

RB,

When I was on AD, we got them every four years (back when it was "hard") but the requirement was changed in 1996 reducing the period to every 3 years. Guess I'm showing my age now huh?

They also don't do Chiefs initiation like they used to either. :thumbsdown:
 
No worries brother. I wasn't trying to be an ass....Army's been 3 since I've been in......'84.

Now who's showing their age?
 
Damn, I have been out to pasture for awhile. GCM was 4 yrs for the Corps in the 80's.

Anyone know the reason for shortening it in '96? To align w/ the other services?
 
In the Army we already have the Army Service Ribbon. Should get a number (2, 3, 4, etc.) on the ASR for every year of honorable service after the first year (don't get the ASR until 1 year of honorable service completed). I think it's silly to give an award for doing what you're supposed to be doing anyway. "Here's your medal for not being a worthless dirtbag!!" :-/
