Life Saving Medal (Vietnam)
The Life Saving Medal ((ベトナム語:Nhân dũng bội tinh)) was a medal awarded by the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam) during the years of the Vietnam War.
It was awarded, or posthumously awarded, to military personnel of all grades, government officials and civilians who exhibited extreme bravery in risking their lives to rescue other people in distress. The Life Saving Medal was also intended for foreigners who risked their lives to rescue Vietnamese citizens in distress.〔(Medals and Decorations of the Republic of Vietnam Armed Forces - South Vietnam ), 1967〕 An example of this was the awarding of the Life Saving Medal to Major Rex Clark, an Australian Army officer, for rescuing a young girl who was drowning in Da Nang harbour.〔
The Life Saving Medal had only one class and was awarded by authority of the Chief of Joint General Staff of the Republic of Vietnam Armed Forces, and presented by the President of the Republic of Vietnam.〔
Australians who received this award were allowed to wear it in uniform.〔(Republic of Vietnam Medals ) on the www.173rdairborne.com site〕
