Inter - service awards and decorations of the United States military History . The first inter - service medal to be created was the World War I Victory Medal . This was followed by the Purple Heart and the Silver Star , established in 1932 by a General Order of the Department of the Army . In 1942 , the United States Navy authorized the issuance of these two medals to members of the Navy and United States Marine Corps . Prior to this time , several older service medals had been issued both to the Army and Navy , but in different versions for each service . The World War I Victory Medal , Silver Star , and Purple Heart were thus the first medals which appeared identical , regardless of which service was bestowing the award . The next inter - service medals to be created were the Legion of Merit and the Air Medal . By the end of World War II , several Second World War campaign medals had also been established for issuance to both Army and Navy personnel . The United States Coast Guard also received such decorations under the authority of the Department of the Navy . The Korean Service Medal was the first inter - service decoration which was issued to all five branches of the U . S . military as , by the time frame of the Korean War , the United States Air Force had been established as a separate branch of service . In the 1960s and 1970s , the United States Armed Forces began creating several more campaign medal s and service awards , all of which could be issued to every branch of the military . In the 1960s and 1970s , the United States Department of Defense began creating a series of peacetime meritorious awards which were eligible for presentation to any military member working in a joint command or under the authority of the Secretary of Defense . The last such medal , the Joint Service Achievement Medal , was created in 1983 . The only inter - service unit decoration , the Joint Meritorious Unit Award was created in 1981 . On April 5 , 2011 , President Barack Obama amended Executive Order 12824 modifying the award eligibility of the Homeland Security Distinguished Service Medal to " any member of the Armed Forces of the United States " making it an inter - service decoration of the U . S . military . Recently , this award has been given to Gen Craig R . McKinley ( USAF ) for his service as Chief of the National Guard Bureau . The Medal of Honor , while technically an inter - service decoration , is issued in different versions for each branch of military service . There are presently three versions in existence for the Army , Navy , and Air Force . Marines receive the Navy version while a Coast Guard version , which exists in theory , has never been bestowed ( the one Coast Guard recipient of the Medal of Honor received the Navy version ) . The following are the various military medals of the United States which are considered inter - service . Medals are shown in categories , not in order of precedence for uniform wear .
Fokker PW - 5 The Fokker PW - 5 ( designated Fokker F VI by Fokker ) was a Dutch fighter aircraft of the 1920s . It was a parasol monoplane of which twelve were built for the US Army Air Service , being used as advanced trainers . Design and development . In 1921 , the US Army Air Service , having evaluated the Fokker D . VIII parasol monoplane , and the D . VII biplane fighters handed over to it after the Armistice with Germany that ended World War I , placed an order for two examples of a parasol monoplane fighter based on the design of the D . VIII but powered by an American - built Hispano - Suiza V - 8 engine , for evaluation . These aircraft , designated by Fokker as Fokker F VI , had plywood - covered wooden cantilever wings similar to those in the D . VIII and the contemporary D . X fighters , and a typical Fokker welded steel - tube fuselage . The forward fuselage was protected by armour plates , although the car - type radiator and the wing - mounted fuel tank had no such protection . The aircraft had a fixed tailskid undercarriage , while it had no fixed fin , having a balanced rudder instead . Operational history . The two evaluation examples were delivered in 1921 , and despite one of them crashing on 13 March 1922 when its wing failed owing to flutter , an order for a further 10 aircraft was placed . These were delivered later in the year , the aircraft being used as advanced trainers by the 1st Pursuit Group .
Al - Hasan ibn Qahtaba Al - Hasan ibn Qahtaba ibn Shabib al - Ta ' i was a senior military leader in the early Abbasid Caliphate . Biography . He was the son of Qahtaba ibn Shabib al - Ta ' i , who along with Abu Muslim led the Abbasid Revolution that toppled the Umayyad Caliphate . Along with his brother Humayd , Hasan was active in the Abbasid cause in Khurasan during the years before the Revolution , serving as a deputy " naqib " . During the Revolution itself , together with his father he was one of the principal commanders in the campaign that brought the Abbasid armies from Khurasan into Iraq ; he took part in the pursuit of Nasr ibn Sayyar and the victory at Nihavand , and despite his father ' s death in battle against the Umayyad governor Yazid ibn Umar al - Fazari , Hasan led the Khurasani army into Kufa . After the Revolution , Hasan served the future Caliph al - Mansur ( r . 754 – 775 ) as deputy governor in Armenia , which he helped pacify , and sided with Mansur against the rebellion of Abdallah ibn Ali in Syria in 754 . After this , he was occasionally appointed to the frontier with the Byzantine Empire , where he led the summer raids into Asia Minor in 766 , 779 and 780 . He is probably also to be identified as the Mouchesias ( Μουχεσίας ) of Byzantine sources , which indicate that on the orders of Caliph al - Mahdi ( r . 775 – 785 ) he was engaged in persecutions and forced conversions of Christians in Syria . Although distinguished as a member of the select " ahl al - bayt " , the Abbasid regime ' s Khurasani elite , and very wealthy — like most Abbasid commanders , he received portions of the newly built capital , Baghdad , as a grant — Hasan played scarcely any political role at court . He died in 797 at the age of 84 . His sons , Muhammad , Ali , and Sa ' id , also held gubernatorial positions in various provinces . In the Fourth Fitna , they all sided with al - Amin against al - Ma ' mun . As with most of the old Abbasid families , they lost power , although not their wealth , after the triumph of al - Ma ' mun in the civil war .
