Is it common to wear six AAMs with two ribbons?

I know about the Silver Oak Leaf Cluster, I'm I missing something?

Yeah, wouldn't it be just one silver oak leaf? Unless there is a "V" hiding out on the left side that I can't see.

No, this person is messed up. You don't need a 2nd ribbon until your tenth award. Assuming the individual has no VCR devices, which it doesn't look like, here's an example chart.

A sixth award should be noted with a silver oak leaf.
The only way that I see this makes sense is that there is a C or R device hidden by the lapel and that this is actually a fifth award.

It looks like another oakleaf sticking even after enlarging the photo I couldn't tell what kind of oakleaf.
AR 670-1 and DA PAM 670-1 should be able to address this question.

I want to know what ribbon is to the left of the Legion of Merit. It should only be the Distinguished Service Medal (based on it's color), or is it like the AAM and this guy is on his sixth LOM?

Is this a cropped picture of someone? Who? And if this person is a legit service member I don't think anyone is going to call him out on it.

Imagine, this is your ASU inspection day, and this rack belongs to the CSM or the COL.

Question: Do you say anything?????

The fact there are 10 awards lower than the NDSM is obscene.

There are instances where two ribbons is correct. AR670-1 addresses this.

This is a chart for 1-5 awards with the new C and R devices on it.
