Distinctive Characteristics of Army Medals
Army medals, arranged in order of precedence from highest to lowest, typically share several defining features. A common design incorporates a gold five-pointed star, often accented with clover motifs. Measuring approximately one inch in diameter, the star is frequently encircled by a wreath of green laurel leaves. Suspended above it is a small plaque bearing the word “VALOR,” upon which an eagle is depicted with wings outspread.
The central profile of Minerva appears within the star, encircled by the inscription “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.” Each point of the star may feature a small oak leaf cluster. Opposite the “VALOR” plaque, another small panel is engraved with the phrase “THE CONGRESS TO,” followed by an intentionally blank space reserved for engraving the recipient’s name.
Within military protocol, awards and badges are worn as distinct groupings. On the dress uniform, they are positioned on the right side and arranged in rows from the wearer’s right to left. The presentation of such medals serves to honor and publicly recognize the most distinguished moments in a U.S. Army service member’s career.
Evolution of Honors - The Historical Legacy of Army Medals
Genesis of Armed Forces Honors
The lineage of this recognition system dates to the American Civil War period in 1862. On July 12 of that year, the U.S. Army adopted the Medal of Valor into its honors framework, patterning it after a similar award already established by the U.S. Navy. This decoration was subsequently renamed the Medal of Honor, cementing its status as the highest military distinction attainable by members of the U.S. armed services.
Service members of the Navy, Army, and Air Force may all qualify for this esteemed commendation, with variations in design reflecting the unique identity of each branch. The President of the United States, serving as Commander-in-Chief, personally bestows the award in an official capacity.
Inception of Service Awards
The creation of formal military service awards was authorized by congressional legislation on July 2, 1926, upon the urging of the War Department. The inaugural presentations did not occur until October 17, 1927. Acting on instructions conveyed in an August 11, 1926 dispatch approved by high-ranking officers, the Secretary of War tasked the Quartermaster General with developing the design for the applicable service medal. The framework for individualized military commendations has been progressively refined and enhanced in the years since.
Qualification for these honors is not restricted to American citizens. Historical records show that sixty-one Canadians who served in the U.S. military have been recipients, most of whom earned the distinction during the American Civil War.
