Army medals are awards given to military personnel to recognize their bravery, service, and achievements. They symbolize honor, commitment, and sacrifice, reflecting the individual's contributions to their country and the values of the armed forces. Medals can be awarded for various reasons, including valor in combat, exemplary service, or participation in specific missions or campaigns. Overall, they serve as a tangible acknowledgment of dedication and accomplishment in military service.
