Not sure about the Purple Heart, but with a lot of medals you have the one actual medal and then silver/bronze oak leaf pins to count how many extra times the medal has been earned. Lt. Thott's hands cover up where her oak leaves would be.

That’s called a “Triple Canopy”. You have to be pretty hardcore to be Airborne, Ranger Qualified and SF.

Out of those, I’d say Ranger School is the toughest school of all of them. RIP (Ranger Indoctrination Phase) is the worst, on purpose, to weed out those that won’t cut it, then the actual Ranger School is split in 3 Phases (Darby Phase, Mountain Phase and Florida Phase).

Thd school is 62 says long and is open to all branches of thd US military.

It takes 2 years or so to earn the longtab, and something like a dozen schools to fail out of, plus selection. Also the airborne tab is a unit designator, not an achievement tab; the actual power tower is SF, Ranger, and Sapper.

That being said, CIB but no crossed rifles or blue cord, or crossed arrows and beret? Also, CIB/Purple Heart but no campaign stripes on her sleeve? AND all this is supposedly within her first 6 years in the Army, based on only one service stripe?

Yeah but pretty much the only way you can get that is by being a combat engineer, and then from there your only way to get a CIB would be to be as an 18 series iirc, because 18 is like... honorary infantry. Although it's funny because there was this one dude who was my front seater in my old unit, he had a CIB AND a CAB, from, well, being SF, getting out of that and then getting a CAB from a ground attack while he was supposed to be on crew rest. Also yeah where... where are her campaign bars?

ALSO ALSO, I'm FAIRLY certain I see the making of a Pathfinder torch but it's hard to really judge seeing as how I don't see the wing, I just see red. Idk what other medals she'd have on there (weird that they're in full size and not ribbon form seeing as how she's not in mess dress nor is she in any sort of awards ceremony from what I can tell

ALSO ALSO ALSO, her purple heart is out of order if that's supposed to be some sort of literal silver star on her chest right next to her goody-two-shoes medal. The order should be flipped actually, left to right, silver star, purple heart, good conduct medal, and below that at minimum would be army service ribbon (the rainbow), NDSM and likely a few achievement and commendation medals
