RIBBON AND ROSETTE On May 2, 1895 Congress authorized a rosette or knot to be worn in lieu of the medal and a ribbon to be worn with the medal. Todays Medal of Honor Ribbon is blue with FIVE stars, 2 at the top and 3 at the bottom. (One of the most common mistakes people make when displaying Medal of Honor graphics is to display the ribbon up-side down.) The six-sided blue silk rosette bears 13 stars and is worn on civilian attire. Medal of Honor recipients also wear the Medal itself around the neck of civilian attire for special occasions.
