Armed Forces Service Medal Full Size Anodized Finish

The Armed Forces Service Medal is a distinguished honor awarded to members of the U.S. Armed Forces who have participated in significant military operations since June 1, 1992, without encountering foreign armed opposition or imminent hostile threats. Eligible service members must be bona fide participants in designated operations, either by serving in the area of eligibility for one or more days, providing direct support for 30 consecutive or 60 nonconsecutive days, or serving as a crew member on aircraft supporting the operation. This medal recognizes contributions to peacekeeping missions, prolonged humanitarian efforts, and military operations supporting the United Nations, NATO, or allied nations. It is reserved for those who deploy to the designated area, ensuring a clear distinction from the Humanitarian Service Medal, which honors non-combat humanitarian achievements.
