I did research and I did ask. Everyone had a different interpretation of the regulation. So I asked here and found the same thing. Everyone has a different answer.

You can only have 4 devices and/or oak leaves on a ribbon. It you need more room then you add an extra ribbon. Rack builder has it laid out correctly, When you get your 6th, you removed the bronze oak leaves and lose the 2nd ribbon and change to a silver oak leaf.

I'm not an expert, but my understanding of valorous awards is that they're distinct from the similarly named awards for achievement or service. Therefore the ARCOM with Valor gets its own ribbon. If you have multiple ARCOM with Valor awards, then your ribbon with the V device would also have oak leaf clusters.

I have had an ARCOM with V device senses I was a SPC (OIF 1), and after muiltiple boards/ promotions, I have had no issues wearing it on the same ribbon. On the right side of the clusters, of course.

simplify it, when you amass that many really does it matter to keep track? You already know what you did. One ribbon is enough, you got a V on it and really if you don't have any more room for a cluster then you already showed your mettle. In the Marines we have a rule that we can wear one ribbon and call it a day, or the whole rack. I know people who did both. I would wear the whole rack though because I only had 9. some folks had like 9 rows. big mess so if they put one of the gimmie awards on and called it a day they were still good to go. Really hard to explain it though when you only have one ribbon and show 16 years of service stripes though, but like I said some folks do it.
