Transcribing Spanish Civil Guard notes for 1916 (note 2 of 2)

Question

For the year 1916 in my great-grandfathers Civil Guard records there are two entries.

Here is the second note: Transcribed text so far:

Según xxx expedida por el Señor Coronel Subinspector del Tercio, de le fuexxx el xxx de en galon de destinación que le corresponde por llevon 12 años en la carrera de las armas y en el xxx de xxx finió el año.

El Comandante Mayor

12 years? Now this sounds interesting. Thanks for reviewing the transcription for me.

Translation

Based on the answer provided I have the following translation:

According to a certificate issued by the Colonel Sub-Inspector of the Tercio [Third], he is granted the use of a gallon of distinction that corresponds to him for 12 years in the career of arms and in the post of Badolatosa he finished the year.

The Major Commander

We know that my great-grandfather did his national service between 1902 - 1904 in Osuna and Cadiz. So this note has to apply to the period 1904 - 1916 (thus matching the stated 12 years).

What exactly is this gallon of distinction? Something he would wear?

Answer 1

Some suggestions:

Según cédula expedida por el Señor Coronel Subinspector del Tercio, se le concede el uso de un galón de distinción que le corresponde por llevar 12 años en la carrera de las armas y en el puesto de Badolatosa finió el año.

El Comandante Mayor

After a quick research, I think this galloon was probably something he would wear in the arm, as it appears in this picture of a civil guard sergeant wearing 3 of these galloons. According to this other post in a forum, the first galloon was awarded after 12 years of service, the second after 17 years and the last one after 21 years.
