Best Answer

The US Medal of Honor is awarded in the name of the Congress to any person, who while serving as a member of the US Armed Forces distinguishes himself or herself conspicuously by gallantry at the risk of life beyond the Call of Duty while engaged in conflict with an enemy of the USA in wartime. The deed performed must have been of personal bravery so conspicuous as to clearly distinguish the individual above his or her comrades and must have involved risk of life.

The criteria for the Medal of Honor, the highest military decoration in the United States, includes acts of valor above and beyond the call of duty, performed in action involving direct conflict with an enemy force. It requires the individual to display selflessness, courage, and extraordinary risk in the face of grave danger. Recommendations for the Medal of Honor are made by the chain of command, reviewed at various levels, and ultimately approved by the President.
