Special thanks to Reddit contributor Cprofota who identified the medal around Clark’s neck as Thailand’s Order of the White Elephant, Commander rank. This solves a two-year-old mystery for me. Congratulations to Cprofota. See companion photo for a better look at this medal.

Note that Admiral Clark is wearing a decoration suspended from a ribbon around his neck. The United States military only issues one award that is worn this way, the Medal of Honor, which this is not and Clark did not receive. It is not known what decoration this is and any information about what it is will be gratefully accepted.
