The highest military decoration varies by country, but in the United States, it is the Medal of Honor. Awarded for acts of valor above and beyond the Call of Duty, it is presented by the President and recognized as the nation's highest military honor. Other countries have their own equivalent honors, such as the Victoria Cross in the UK or the Order of the Bath for exceptional service. Each of these decorations symbolizes extraordinary bravery and sacrifice in military service.
