I'm just a civilian here in los angeles but it seems like Liz Murray certainly has a lot of medals and badges. Very impressive. :)

@203207ab I'm a civilian too, but I can explain some of them. The multicolored "stripes" just indicate that she passed basic training and served in certain areas. Each is symmetrical, so as you can see she has a total of 12 (which is impressive in its own right). The one directly above that is probably her Military Occupational Specialty (MOS). I'm not sure about the shiny gold-ish one above that though. The pins on the collar of her shirt are rank.
