The Soldier’s Medal (SM) is an individual decoration of the United States Army. The Soldier’s Medal is equivalent to the Navy and Marine Corps medal, the Air and Space Forces’ Airmen’s Medal, and the Coast Guard Medal. 

The criteria for the medal are: “The Soldier’s Medal is awarded to any person of the Armed Forces of the United States or of a friendly foreign nation who, while serving in any capacity with the Army of the United States, including Reserve Component soldiers not serving in a duty status at the time of the heroic act, distinguished himself or herself by heroism not involving conflict with an enemy.”
