Any award with a ribbon can be worn on a different service uniform if it was earned while attached to a joint command, the person was involved in a joint mission, etc. The ribbon device is worn on the right breast over the pocket.

How do you align ribbons on navy service uniform?

You use a ribbon bar. These are thin frames of metal or plastic with pins. You slide the ribbons onto the frame work in the correct order and it pins onto the uniform with the standard sort of pin with cover. Ribbon bars come in metal for a specific number of ribbons, or you can get plastic ones that can be clipped to size. For a couple of ribbons, I prefer the metal frame, but once you get over a couple of rows, the plastic will provide some give and movement with the body.

What do you get a navy cross ribbon for?

Navy Cross is the Navy's equivalent to the Army's Distinguished Service Cross and the Air Force Cross. It is usually only awarded to Navy, Marine Corps or Coast Guard personel, but can be awarded to any member of the US Military. It is the second highest award for valor a serviceman can receive. Essentially its a step down from the Congressional Medal of Honor. Note: Not really a big deal, but it is referred to as a medal, not a ribbon.
