Hello Gents
Does anyone here know when medal ribbons started to be representive of campaigns and/or the country they were fought in. I have done a web-search and can fine plenty of explanations of what the colours mean, but nothing on the history of when it became a standard practice.
I would have thought that there would be at least one web site that covered it seeing as how integral it is to the medal, but I could not locate anything useful.
