Recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor do not receive a direct monetary award simply for receiving the medal. However, they may receive a monthly pension from the Department of Veterans Affairs, which is a benefit for their service. Additionally, Medal of Honor recipients often have access to various benefits and honors, such as educational opportunities and special recognition.
