yes -The CMOH has a Lifetime pension attached to it $ 100.00 a month ...Not A consideration for getting the award
Sorry but you're way off regarding monthly pension amount for a Medal of Honor reciepient. It's now $1237.00 per month for life. Definitely not $100.00 a month.
The Medal of Honor is the highest award a soldier can receive but it is not an Army award; it is granted by Congress.This leaves the Distinguished Service Cross as the highest award that can be granted to an American soldier by the US Army.See the link below for the order and description of military awards, ribbons, and medals.
Two Answers. A soldier who received the Bronze Star Medal does not receive any monetary award or bonus pay for this medal. The Bronze Star Medal is worth some money. The value depends on the age and if it is engraved with a soldier's name. If a Medal is part of a group of medals earned by a soldier is worth more if the medals are kept together as a group.

Running medals as well as ribbons and other award type trinkets are found at any hobby store. There is also a store in most malls called Things Remembered that has a selection of trophies, ribbons and yes running medals.
For general issue; The "Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal". This award would supplement any individual medals such as Purple Hearts, CIBs, Bronze Stars, etc.
Nothing. There is no monetary reward with Olympic medals. Any such financial gain is from commercial enterprises and promotions.
The winners of 4th through 8th place in the Olympics do not receive any medals. Only the 1st through 3rd place winners get medals.
