Marksmanship Ribbon
A Marksmanship Ribbon is an award of the United States Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard that is issued to service members who pass a weapons qualification course and achieve an above-average score. Additionally, there are select State National Guard organizations that award marksmanship ribbons for high placement in state-level marksmanship competitions.

The U.S. Navy has issued two marksmanship ribbons: the ''Navy Pistol Marksmanship Ribbon'' and ''Navy Rifle Marksmanship Ribbon'', since 1920. The pistol ribbon is currently awarded for qualification on the Beretta M9 9mm pistol, while the rifle ribbon is currently awarded for qualification on the M14 and M16 assault rifle variants.〔(OPNAVINST 3591.1F, Small Arms Training and Qualification ), Department of the Navy, dated 12 August 2009, last accessed 18 February 2013〕
The Navy issues the marksmanship ribbon in three levels — that of Marksman, Sharpshooter, and Expert. The basic ribbon is awarded for the Marksman level while the specific Marksmanship Device is awarded for qualification as a Sharpshooter or Expert. Those receiving an Expert qualification receive the Marksmanship Medal, in addition to the Marksmanship Ribbon.〔
Between 1942 and 1960, the Navy also issued ribbons known as the Distinguished Marksmanship Ribbons.〔(A Short History of the Distinguished Shooter Program ), by Hap Rocketto, dated 28 September 2010, last accessed 18 February 2013〕 These awards were declared obsolete by 1965.
