Since this is the future why not use medals that contains electronic reference data so that people with implants or visors etc can scan pertinent data?

Or use a medal/clasp with a numerical symbol to designate number of assault landings etc.

So you can see a salty marine NCO with a clasp that has the number 154 electronically on his assault landing clasp compared to a fairly new marine Private who only has 2.

Extravagant medals should really only be used for major heroics or large numbers of deeds. For example conducting 100+ assault landings give you a clasp that has a golden rim around it to further show that this is one bad-ass marine.
