The Medal of Honor
The UNSC Medal of Honor is the one of the highest military decorations awarded by the UNSC to its Soldiers, Marines and Sailors.
Background
The Medal of Honor is awarded for conspicuous acts of individual gallantry among UNSC Soldiers, Sailors, and Marines during times of war.
History
Originally created in 1782 by George Washington of the United States of America, the Medal of Honor has been used continuously for almost eight hundred years. Its appearance has remained virtually the same since 1943. However, instead of being worn around the neck as the members of the United States military, the UNSC Medal of Honor is a medal worn with all other medals, on the chest of the wearer.
Recipients
- Fleet Admiral Sir Terrence Hood
- Captain Jacob Keyes
- Commander Miranda Keyes
- Master Chief Petty Officer John-117
- Sergeant Major Avery J. Johnson
