Army Kosovo Campaign Streamer
The Army Kosovo Campaign Streamer represents U.S. Army campaign participation and distinguished service during military operations associated with the Kosovo conflict and subsequent defense and stabilization operations.
The Kosovo Campaign Medal was established by Executive Order 13154 on May 3, 2000, recognizing members of the United States Armed Forces who participated in or directly supported designated military operations related to Kosovo.
The Army Kosovo Campaign Streamer features five stripes of Blue, Red, White, Blue, and Red, reflecting the distinctive colors of the Kosovo Campaign Medal ribbon. The authorized campaign inscription is embroidered in Yellow.
The U.S. Army recognizes two authorized Kosovo Campaign Streamer inscriptions:
