Product Details

The box set consist of the large medal and ribbon mounted inside the presentation box.

Awarded for outstanding achievement or meritorious service in a joint service command or joint service activity - not of a nature that would otherwise warrant awarding the Commendation Medal. Since the Joint Service Achievement Medal is designated as an award solely for junior personnel, it is generally only awarded to officers in the pay grade of O-4 and below and enlisted personnel below the grade of E-7. Award authority rests with local commanders, granting a broad discretion of when and for what action the Achievement Medal may be awarded. The Joint Service Achievement Medal may be awarded in a combat area, but for non-combat meritorious service. The Joint Service Achievement Medal is the lower of the United States military's meritorious service joint service medals. The Achievement Medal was first proposed as a means to recognize the contributions of junior officers and enlisted personnel who were not eligible to receive the higher Commendation Medal or the Meritorious Service Medal. Additional awards are denoted by oak leaf clusters.

Attachments: Bronze Oak Leaf Device, Silver Oak Leaf Device.
