	My military experience
		Air Staff members are the Air Force men and women at the Pentagon who write policy and make decisions that affect the entire Air Force.
		But each enlisted service member has a particular grade, E-1 through E-9, and their pay is determined by that grade, regardless of the insignia their service assigns to them or what name they are called.
		If you were an Air Force E-2 and you were talking to a Marine E-7, you wouldn't want to start off with "Hey dude..." For Air Force people, you can count the stripes on their chevron and also count the star.

	What are the Different Types of Military Ribbons?
		Military ribbons are awarded to recognize successful completion of a standard service, such as training, deployment, or special programs.
		A service ribbon is different from a military badge or medal given for a single act of bravery or performance.
		Military ribbons are pinned to the breast of the uniform and derived from the flags knights used to carry into battle, whose bright colors showed the purpose of each battalion.

	Stars and Stripes: New ribbon available for deployed airmen
		ARLINGTON, Va. — The Air Force has a new ribbon for active-duty, Reserve and Guard members who have served in support of an air expeditionary force deployment.
		Airmen whose orders don’t identify the trip as a contingency deployment, but think it should qualify, can ask their squadron commanders to decide, and then to give the personnel flight office a memo that validates the deployment and says how many days of the trip should be eligible to count for the ribbon.
		There is no time limit to accumulate the 90 nonconsecutive days, and airmen can accumulate more than one ribbon: once the first ribbon is awarded, every consecutive 45 days of deployment counts towards the devices, such as the oak leaf cluster, that signify multiple awards.
