<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If it is a state medal from the Guard usually not. Maybe <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="198196" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/198196-68s-preventive-medicine-specialist">MSG Private RallyPoint Member</a> or <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="49237" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/49237-ssg-steven-borders">SSG Steven Borders</a> have a better answer.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Yes. It falls just under the Good Conduct Medal in order of precedence

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Yup, its actually a reserve and guard ribbon, not a state ribbon. Just like the enlisted who come from AD to USAR can continue to wear their AGCM, your ARCAM is still authorized.

Its a federal award given to both reserve and guard personnel.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I feel as though there might be an AR that would answer this..

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Yes, it can be worn on active duty. It is a Federal award.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Yes

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Yes, you can still wear it.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I would say yes, as that is a federal award and not a state award.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>You should be able too since it is a US Army award not a state award.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Any award from Active to Reserve and National guard can be worn if it was awarded to you.
