Ducky is wearing military medals on his left side of his tux which means they are his own to represent someone else you wear theirs on your right breast.

If anyone is interested the medals are as follows:

Top bar (l-r):
1 The Atlantic Star given out for service in WW2 (but the ribbon is reversed).
2 The Africa star again for service WW2
3 War Medal for service in WW2
4 Rather than a muddled version of the Defence medal it actually appears to be the Canadian Volunteer Service Medal.

With those selection of medals there should be a Defence medal but there’s not.

Bottom Bar (l-r):
1 South Vietnam campaign ribbon but star is wrong tallies with CBS bio.
2 The medal appears to be a British “victory medal” from WW1 but the ribbon is wrong and I can’t identify the ribbon it has due to it being too dark to see anything other than it is plain blue.
3. The medal is the silver variation of the British War Medal from WW1. No idea on the ribbon I cannot find it listed anywhere.
4 Again too dark to see medal or ribbon other than 2 pale vertical stripes.

They are a very odd collection of medals some aren’t quite right and some that should be there aren’t. However some of them do point to the fact that Ducky may have been in the Navy/Marines in WW2.
For anyone interested
The Atlantic Star was awarded for six months' service afloat in the Atlantic, Home Waters or Russian convoys.
The Africa star was also awarded to Naval personal serving off the coast as well as on land.
The War medal was awarded for 28 days' service wherever rendered.

Now either this means:
A) Ducky is much older that we've thought (Highlander crossover anyone?)
B) Wardrobe messed up seriously and no-one either cared or noticed in both choosing the medals and thier placement.
