The Georgia National Guard Recruiting Ribbon honors Georgia National Guard members who successfully recruit five new enlistments.
The Georgia National Guard consists of the Georgia Army National Guard and the Georgia Air National Guard, which are currently estimated to number 11,100 and 3,000 members respectively. The Army component, headquartered in Marietta, traces its roots back to 1751 militia activity in Savannah. The Air component was formed officially in May of 1948, although its origins lie in the 840th Aero Squadron, a non-flying unit that supported World War I efforts; the Air guard is based in Brunswick, Georgia.
The ribbon is white with three thin vertical red stripes toward each edge and four blue stars in the center.
Subsequent awards may be indicated by oak leaf clusters.
