	MILNET Brief
		The Soldier's Medal was established in 1926 to recognize soldiers for voluntary acts of bravery during peacetime or heroism not involving actual conflict with an enemy.
		A campaign medal was designed for each Theater, and participation in designated battles or campaigns was designated by the use of small campaign stars (rather than bars as was the case for the WW I Victory Medal) affixed to the medal and service ribbons.
		This medal is only awarded to personnel attached to one of the ships or units listed in the notice or instruction at some time during the respective periods shown, and who actually participated in the operation.

	History of Naval Service and Campaign Medals
		merican bluejackets and Marines were without official medals or other visible signs of their overseas service or combat for the first 120 years of the Navy's existence, since orders, medals and decorations were seen as the trappings of royalty and empire and ran contrary to the republican spirit present at the founding of our country.
		On rare occasions, Congress authorized special commemorative medals for heroes of dramatic naval victories, but these went chiefly to the vessels' commanding officer and were not medals intended for wear on the naval uniform.
		Two, however -- the Battle of Manila Bay Medal and the West Indies Naval Campaign Medal, 1898 -- are included because of their widespread issuance.

		In the 136 years since the Medal of Honor was established, a total of 3,428 Medals have been awarded (as of April 1998), to a total of 3,408 recipients (twenty have received the Medal twice).

		Although there were special medals voted by Congress for special contributions (the first awarded to George Washington in 1776; the first awarded to common soldiers were those given to three militiamen who jumped and captured a spy named John Andre), there were no special awards for servicemen.
