It's November, so it's my traditional Fullmetal Month. I'm currently re-watching the 03 TV series, and I too completely forgot about the different ratio. I'd spent the first half of my month watching Brotherhood, so switching over had me very confused.

Oh wow, that exhibit looks and sounds so cool! The 'I Hate Milk' bottle looks like something I'd buy. And replicas of Mustang's gloves? That would be awesome to have. All of the FMA merchandise!

Well, well--whoever did up Roy Mustang's uniform used authentic U.S. military ribbons; to wit:

Top: Combat Action Ribbon (Navy) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combat_Action_Ribbon
Bottom: NCO Professional Development Ribbon (Air Force)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Commissioned_Officer_Professional_Development_Ribbon

Can't make out the rest; too obscured.

Makes sense the costumer would use foreign ribbons; they certainly look "real" (they are), and they don't look like anything issued by the SDF.
