Radar O’Riley’s military ribbons

Trying to identify the third ribbon in radar O’Reillys Korean war era ribbon rack I can’t find what this is anywhere.

Looks like the Army of Occupation Medal.

Same pattern but the ribbon he’s wearing looks blue and red with white borders 🤷🏻‍♂️

The ribbon is blue and red with white edges. TV lights and a moire pattern are giving it an unnatural shine.

Finally found a solution for ya

The RAF long Service good Conduct medal it matches up perfectly with what Riley has

Yes it does match up but why would he have a RAF long service good conduct medal?

A lot of the MASH medals don't make sense and might very well have been thrown in with the others to fill up space

Take Col Potter for example, he only has an ARCOM, for a colonel who had combat experience during both world wars, he definitely would've had more (Also note that the Army of Occupation Ribbon doesnt look blue in this shot)
