The injury must be serious enough to require emergency room attention. This award is denoted by a blood red stripe one centimeter in width, at a 30-degree angle all the way around the upper right sleeve of the uniform below the TRMN Patch, or on the right sleeve of a civilian court dress or tuxedo, and worn below the Monarch’s Thanks and Mentioned in Dispatches.

TRMN Information
This award is issued to members of the Royal Manticoran Armed Services who either are seriously injured while on duty during an event or participate in a blood donation drive at an approved event. The injury must be serious enough to require emergency room attention. This award is denoted by a blood red stripe one centimeter in width, at a 30-degree angle all the way around the upper right sleeve of the uniform below the TRMN Patch, or on the right sleeve of a civilian court dress or tuxedo, and worn below the Monarch’s Thanks and Mentioned in Dispatches. Multiple awards are denoted by additional stripes up to four. After the fifth award, a gold border is added to the top stripe and the others are removed. A sixth and subsequent award are denoted by additional stripes below the gold-boarded stripe, up to the ninth award. After the tenth award, a gold border is added to the second stripe and the others are removed. The pattern continues, with every fifth award converted into a gold-bordered stripe.
Donation of Whole Blood, Platelets, Power Red, and Double Red Cell are also acceptable methods for gaining the Wound Stripe. The donation must occur during a Grand Alliance or Flag event or during an organizational drive approved by the Steering Committee. All donations must be documented, and a copy of the documentation must be submitted for review. The first stripe will be issued for the initial donation of any type with the second and subsequent stripes issued for every 3 whole blood donations (or equivalent) (see below).
NOTE:
4 platelet donations = 1 whole blood donation
1 Power Red donation = 2 whole blood donations
1 Double Red Cell donation = 2 whole blood donations.
Combinations of different types of donations must add up to 3 whole blood donations for each subsequent stripe.
Since there is no such thing as ½ donation, the ‘left-over’ ½ donation of a Power Red or Double Red Cell donation may be credited toward the next stripe.
