Default All Vietnam Veterans Were Awarded The Vietnam Cross of Gallantry

All Vietnam Veterans Were Awarded The Vietnam Cross of Gallantry

Awarded to members of the Armed Forces of the United States for
valorous achievement in combat during the Vietnam conflict, March 1,
1961 through March 28, 1973.

Every American who served in Vietnam was awarded the Vietnam Cross of
Gallantry.

The Cross of Gallantry is recognized by the United States government
and all federal agencies.

Because the Cross of Gallantry does not appear on every Vietnam
veteran’s DD-214 Vietnam veterans may receive government
acknowledgement (only) of this medal (but not the medal itself, see
below) by requesting a DD-215 from the National Records and Personnel
Center in St. Louis, MO using standard form (SF) SF-180. To obtain an
SF-180 please travel to URL:

Do not request the medal to be issued to you. The United States
government does not issue foreign medals.
