Awards and decorations of the Vietnam War were military decorations which were bestowed by the major warring parties during the years of the Vietnam War. North Vietnam, South Vietnam and the United States all issued awards and decorations during the conflict. In year 2015 some active duty military members (with at least 40+ years service) can be seen wearing Vietnam War awards, which were earned at the beginning of their military careers (the Vietnam War officially ended in April 1975). South Vietnam as a country ceased to exist after North Vietnam's victory in the Vietnam War. Therefore, the country of South Vietnam's awards and decorations are considered obsolete. With the fall of South Vietnam, that country's official records of who received which awards disappeared. Records or evidence of awards were sometimes maintained by U.S. military units or in an award recipient's service record, so those may be available to an award recipient looking for confirmation of a (defunct) foreign country award received. Despite being obsolete earned foreign South Vietnam decorations and awards remain authorized for U.S. military members who received such. If an award recipient no longer possesses an original award, companies or individuals have available for purchase South Vietnam's military insignia and awards. A listing of the most commonly bestowed Vietnam war era decorations is as follows: ==South Vietnam== Senior Leadership Decorations *80px National Order of Vietnam * Vietnam Distinguished Service Order Heroism Decorations * Vietnam Military Merit Medal Common Decorations * Vietnam Gallantry Cross *80px Vietnam Civil Actions Medal * Vietnam Campaign Medal Unit Citations * Vietnam Presidential Unit Citation * Vietnam Gallantry Cross Unit Citation * Vietnam Civil Actions Unit Citation Other Awards * Vietnam Armed Forces Honor Medal *80px Vietnam Staff Service Medal *80pxVietnam Air Gallantry Cross *80pxVietnam Navy Gallantry Cross *80px Vietnam Special Service Medal 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Awards and decorations of the Vietnam War」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
