	Vietnam Gallantry Cross - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Gallantry Cross is issued in four degrees, with a basic medal followed by higher degrees which are the equivalent of personal citations on an organizational level (also known as having been "mentioned in dispatches").
		Known as the "Vietnam Gallantry Cross Unit Citation with Palm," the unit citation award was created in 1968 and was issued as the Gallantry Cross ribbon, with a metal palm device, enclosed within a gold frame.
		The unit citation was issued in the name of South Vietnam to any military unit which distinguished itself to the same level as would be required for the individual award.
