- (a) Medals - The ribbon will be one and three-quarter inches in length unless class necessitate its being longer. When two or more medals are worn they will be so arranged that the lower edges (or the lowest point of a star) are in line. The length of all ribbons will be regulated by that of the medal which, including any clasp, is the longest. The bar from which decorations or medals are suspended will be placed immediately above the left breast pocket of the jacket. If only a single medal is worn this will be placed with the inner edge of the ribbon one inch from the inner seam of the pocket flap. With two or more medals, the inner edge of the medal ribbons shall be immediately above the inner seam of the pocket-flap. When the decorations and medals cannot, on account of their number, be suspended from the bar so as to be fully seen, they are to overlap. Medals should always be worn so as to show the Sovereign's head. As regards badges of orders the special rules on the subject issued to recipients shall be observed.In undress uniform or informal working dress the ribbon will be ⅜ inch in length and will be worn on a bar or sewn on the jacket, without intervals, immediately above the left breast pocket of the jacket or shirt. When there is not sufficient room to wear the ribbons in one row, they will be worn in two or more rows not more than ½ inch apart; the centre of the rows to be immediately above the button of the left pocket.No ribbon will be covered by the lapel of the jacket.(b)Miniature medals will be worn with mess dress on the left breast in one horizontal line, one inch below the point of the shoulder, suspended from a bar of which no part is to be seen. The length of the bar must vary with the number of miniatures, but in no case should it project beyond the lapel or shoulder seam of the jacket. The top of the collar badge should be ¾ inch beneath the lower edge of the medal. Miniature Indian title badges should be worn in the same manner. When the miniatures cannot, on account of their number, be suspended from the bar so as to be fully seen, they are to overlap.
