Agreed. The Army might have training ribbons, the Navy and Marines do not (unless I just never got any!). There are quite a number of ribbons without medals. The only training ribbons in the Navy/Marine Corps team are . . . well, there aren't any. 
CAR, Battle E, JMU, NUC/MUC, the FMF ribbon/warfare device for us Corpsman types, are just a few of our ribbons without medals.
