====Size====
Streamers' sizes vary based upon the military branch that uses them and the size of the flag that they are attached to. Generally they are {{convert|3|ft|m}} long and {{convert|2.75|in|cm}} wide; the USMC's streamers are {{convert|2.75|in|cm}} wide and either {{convert|36|in|ft}} or {{convert|48|in|ft}} long.<ref name=USMCstreamers>{{cite web|url=http://www.guidonsandmore.com/umacost.html|title=USMC Award Streamers Marine Corps Battle Streamers|website=Guidonsandmore.com}}</ref>
 
====Colors====
Where a medal has been awarded for a particular war or service, the coloring and design of the streamer are the same as the ribbon from which the medal is suspended. Conflicts and operations for which no medal was issued have ribbons specially designed for use as streamers.
