For the fifth awarding of the ribbon, how many silver stars are worn?

• A. One
• B. Two
• C. Three
• D. None

Answer: (B)

The fifth awarding of the ribbon is indicated by wearing two silver stars. In military and NJROTC regulations, each silver star represents a subsequent award beyond the first. Therefore, one silver star would indicate the second award, two silver stars the fifth, and so on. This system allows for a visual representation of a cadet's achievements and awards, enabling easy recognition of their accomplishments in the program. The combination of the ribbon with two silver stars properly signifies the fifth award and is consistent with the guidelines for displaying achievements in the NJROTC.
