After January 1982, Marine Corps awards related to the Beirut, Lebanon deployment primarily included the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal and the Navy Unit Commendation. Additionally, service members may have received the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal for their participation in the multinational force in Lebanon. Some Marines were also awarded the Purple Heart for injuries sustained during the conflict. The operations in Beirut were pivotal in recognizing the sacrifices made by U.S. forces during this period.
