The National Commander Citation ribbon became obsolete on January 1, 1978. Prior to that time, it was the highest award in the CAP's Senior Member Training Program. It has since been replaced by the Gill Robb Wilson Award.
This object is not on display at the National Air and Space Museum. It is either on loan or in storage.
