Click on "Awarded" and make sure it is going down from most awarded to least awarded.

When looking at this, something struck me as odd: Shouldn't the most awarded awards be the stars? Think about it, every round has a best, second best, and third best (at least in points) player. Yet not every round awards, say, basic spec ops to someone.

Mystery? Or am I just stupid?

Could be a flaw in the stats-system.
That you receive all your badges and ribbons every time you fulfil the criteria but some of them do not show up on screen while others do?
(The only explanation I could think of.)

It was a Special Forces ribbon. For using aircraft. Supposedly, Devil's Perch MIGHT have had jets, and there might have been some maps with jets.

It's the first times, not total amount awarded.

e.g The first time I got a gold star was registered there, but the second wasn't anymore.

So the particular award is given to the amount of people the number shows. Not that many times.

DICE employees trying it out. No one officially has it. Just like the EU ribbon.

They took it out. In the original pan for bf2(Before ea fucked it up) Alot of things were different. There was supposed to be a pla city map like karkand, And from else i've read on various forums SF was supposed to have 2 jet maps(Perch might have been one of them) They never got around to making them since they spent all the time on fixing bugs.

Because most people have at least 1 Purple Heart.

I, on the other hand, have the honor of 4.
