Circa 2001 the ribbon for the RIDSM was changed to have a broader stripe of blue in the middle.
When the ribbon is worn by a member of the Army National Guard, the green stripe is worn on the wearer's right and when worn by a member of the Air National Guard the blue stripe is worn on the wearer's right.
