They should be on the left breast in the order of precedence from the right to the left. In other words, the medals with the highest order of precedence should be closest to the heart of the wearer. If more than one row is required, the medals with a higher order of precedence should be worn on the top row. Here is an example of mini ribbons on a suit: Military Ribbons on Uniforms Each ribbon should be arranged in the order of precedence. The highest ranking ones are at the top and on the right. For example, a ribbon rack can begin with a high-level Medal of Honor or a Distinguished Service Cross and finish with lower-level unit awards, non-military awards, and foreign awards. The ribbons should be in rows, and the rows should not exceed four. If there are more than four ribbons, the wearer should start another role. The first and second rows should have the same number of ribbons, while the remaining rows can have fewer. The entire ribbon rack should be pinned 1/8-inch above and in the center of the left breast pocket for male wearers and on the left side while centered with the nameplate on the right for female wearers.
