Criteria: The Silver Star is awarded to a person who, while serving in any capacity with CTF, is cited for gallantry in action against an enemy his team while engaged in military operations involving conflict with an opposing foreign force, or while serving with friendly foreign forces engaged in armed conflict against an opposing team. The required gallantry, while of a lesser degree than that required for award of the Distinguished Service Cross, must nevertheless have been performed with marked distinction. Soldiers who received a citation for gallantry in action may apply to have the citation converted to the Silver Star Medal. |
