Question

Medals and ribbons for official display may be procured from Service sources or authorized commercial vendors for an attractive, dignified, and secure display. The Medal of Honor is strictly controlled; upon approval by CNO or CMC, how many sets may be furnished, on a no-cost basis, which will be engraved with the words "FOR DISPLAY ONLY"?

Answer 1

Up to three sets of the Medal of Honor can be provided for display purposes, engraved with 'FOR DISPLAY ONLY,' upon approval by the CNO or CMC.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question pertains to the regulation regarding the procurement and display of military medals, specifically, the Medal of Honor. Per the regulation, upon approval by the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) or the Commandant of the Marine Corps (CMC), three sets of the Medal of Honor may be furnished on a no-cost basis for display purposes. These medals will be distinctly marked with the engraving 'FOR DISPLAY ONLY' to signify that they are not the actual medals awarded to the recipients but replicas for the purpose of public display.
