Campaign Medal

A campaign medal is a military honour and decoration which is awarded to soldiers of all ranks and occupations who serve in foreign regions or are deployed to areas of contest. A campaign medal is similar to a service medal, but is often ranked higher among the order of Wear.

Campaign Medals often hold what is called a 'clasp' system, in which silver or bronze bars are attached to the ribbon of the medal to which the battle the bar is dedicated to and occurred in. (I.G, the Operation Shieldwall bar is found on many Fourth War Campaign medals, the bar awarded to all those who served in the Operation.)

Campaign Medals in the Grand Alliance
While many more campaign medals have arisen since the formation of the Alliance of Lordaeron, many campaign medals have been awarded to soldiers since before the Alliance's creation, the concept having already been long in use. This can be seen in the military histories of long-standing forces such as the Gilnean and Lordaeronian Military.
