Re:	Marksmanship Equivalencies Using the new RMA Marksmanship Qualifications (Admiralty Order 1803-03)

The RMN, RMMC, Civilian, GSN and other Marksmanship programs shall be conducted as set forth in the RMA Marksmanship Manual. All marksmanship awards shall follow the guidelines set forth in the RMA Marksmanship manual with the exception that the issuing authority for each award in the various services remains as currently set in the relevant Awards Manual and/or superseding Admiralty Orders.

What this means is that for a member of any service to qualify for a Marksmanship ribbon or badge, the RMA Marksmanship Program manual should be used when determining what games count for which ribbon. All awards earned through the marksmanship program will be for whatever award/ribbon is utilized by the earning member’s service of choice (RMN earns RMN Pistol or Rifle, GSN earns the GSN Marksmanship award, etc..). If you have previously earned a marksmanship ribbon or award, it is still valid and does not need to be earned again.

Equivalencies for the various RMA Marksmanship awards (based on your current service branch of choice) are found below:
