Why has the Vietnam Campaign Medal (RVNCM) attachment never been updated?

The official attachent (device) for an RVNCM has the date 1960 with a dash after it and then a space. The thought is that the device would eventually be updated to include the date of the end of the war, but this never happened. Isn't it time to finish the job and update this medal? It may be a small thing, but it seems disrepectful to me to leave this medal incomplete.

Sgt (Join to see), the Vietnam Service Medal is the one that was issued by the U.S. government.

MSgt Robert C Aldi - Great idea. I have seen the half scale wall, but not the Vietnam Veteran Memorial Wall. This is on my to do list.

Sgt (Join to see) - Get to it Ted! And the medal was always a foreign award, never issued by us.

Considering how we got involved and how it was ended, (how we left) does it actually matter anymore? The date will live on with all us VietNam vets, period!
