coast guard unit commendation

right The Coast Guard Unit Commendation is the highest peacetime unit award which may be awarded to military commands of the United States Coast Guard. The decoration was first created in 1963 and is presented to members of any Coast Guard unit which distinguishes itself by valorous or extremely meritorious service, not involving combat, but in support of Coast Guard operations. Additional awards of the Coast Guard Unit Commendation are denoted by award stars. The Operational Distinguishing Device is also authorized for units which are presented the decoration for field operations and conditions. Prior to 2003, the Coast Guard Unit Commendation was subordinate to the Secretary of Transportation Outstanding Unit Award. With the transfer of the Coast Guard to the Department of Homeland Security, the Coast Guard Unit Commendation is now the senior peacetime award, ranking under the Joint Meritorious Unit Award and, in times of war, the Presidential Unit Citation.
