How to use / When it’s useful

Quick answer: wear this ribbon only if the Comando/Ente has formally granted the recognition. Place it on the left chest above the jacket pocket and align it with any other authorised ribbons.

In most cases, the ribbon is used on duty uniforms and on dress or representation jackets where a neat, institutional appearance is required. Choose clamps if you need to move the ribbon between garments, or screws for a stable, permanent fit.

Care and notes

Simple care keeps the ribbon presentable and compliant with uniform rules.

• Wear only when officially authorised by your Comando/Ente.
• Choose clamps for flexibility or screws for fixed mounting to maintain alignment.
• Store and clean gently; avoid aggressive washing that could fray edges or fade colours.
• Adding a central emblem is a custom option and may affect price—confirm the authorised symbol before ordering.
