US Army Silver Star Miniature Medal

The US Army Silver Star Miniature Medal is a small-scale version of the third-highest honor for valor in combat among the US military awards. Given for distinction during combat, it is traditionally bestowed upon members of the United States Armed Forces. Crafted to replicate the original medal faithfully, its design features a gilt, five-pointed star, adorned with laurel leaves around a smaller star. The ribbon’s vibrant color scheme reflects the original, with a red stripe in the middle flanked by white and blue. This miniature version serves various purposes, such as display on dress attire or as part of a military history collection. It is an emblem of bravery and a testament not only to personal valor but the high regard for these qualities in the US Army. It is essential to mention that it’s manufacturing does not undermine the actual recipient’s valour or sacrifice.
