the basis that the recipient has gone above and
beyond the call of duty. These medals are not
awarded for expected duties (practices, attendance,
communication, etc.), but for members who have proven
to be model soldiers for this clan and who deserve
recognition for their outstanding service. Medals are
privileged awards, not a guarantee for bare minimum
service. |
|
|
|
| Level
1 |
|
 |
Medal
of Honor - The Medal of Honor is the highest award
that can be given to a member. To receive this medal,

in the service of BHC while against an enemy action.
The deed performed must have been one of personal
bravery or self-sacrifice so conspicuous as to clearly
distinguish the individual above his or her comrades
and must have involved risk of life. Incontestable
proof of the performance of the service will be
exacted and each recommendation for the award of this

extraordinary merit. This award can only be earned

outside clan matches, and may be awarded multiple
times. |

awarded to any person who, while serving in any
capacity with BHC, has distinguished himself or
herself by exceptionally meritorious service to the

awarded for combat, but meritorious service in any
aspect of the clan. |
 |

while serving in any capacity with BHC, distinguishes

apart from his or her comrades. This award can only be
