So the question is I have to Navy Unit awards that are the same. I earned them while in the Army and attached to the Marine Corps for operations in Iraq. Since I have two I'm curious to know if I put a "star" on it like the Navy does, or an "a cluster" like the Army does. It's for my DA photo, and I've heard mixed reviews... reference and thoughts are welcomed.
42 series SMEs couldn't tell me exactly where to reference.
Thanks

Navy awards are governed by Navy regs so you would wear a star on a Navy unit award.
