Gunner is correct. Once you get to a point where the ribbons start to go under the lapel the next row is shortened. For example, from the bottom you would have a row of 4 ribbons, another row of 4, another row of 4, then when you get to the lapel you'd have a row of 3 then another row of three then a row of 2, ect. ect. until you run out of ribbons.

Not supposed to. Make us look as if we have more than we do. He has paid his dues either way.
