When awarded for acts of heroism, the medal is awarded with the "V" device. 1 Silver Star: The third highest military decoration for valor that can be awarded to any pony serving in any capacity with the Equestrian Armed forces. The medal is awarded for gallantry in action against an enemy of Equestria. Silver Cross of Bravery: for valor beyond the call of duty Lance of Equestria: For the killing of a HVT with the kill order on their heads. 4 Purple Hearts: Wounded in combat Cross of valour: The Cross of Valour is a decoration that is, within the Equestrian system of honours, the second highest award (superseded only by the Victoria Cross), the highest honour available for Equestrian civilians, and the highest of the three Equestrian Bravery Decorations. Created in 1972, the medallion is presented to individuals, both Equestrians and foreigners, living and deceased, who have performed acts of the most conspicuous courage in circumstances of extreme peril and grants recipients the ability to use the post-nominal letters CV. Order of the Celestial Shield: For the rescue of a wounded comrade in life threatening conditions; placing life and limb on the line for a comrade in need. Victorian Cross: The Victoria Cross is awarded for "the most conspicuous bravery, a daring or pre-eminent act of valour or self-sacrifice or extreme devotion to duty, in the presence of the enemy" ___________________________________________-----_________________________________________ After being detained regarding the murder of Corporal Skyrunner at his hooves, The captain was held at the military hospital of 'Happy Acres' (REDACTED, ACCESS LEVEL 7 REQUIRED) Until evidence was brought forward regarding his innocence regarding the matter. Declared unfit for combat after the murder of Skyrunner’ and the death of the vast majority of his company. Seen as mentally unfit for duty by a small tribunal, Riot was sent off with nothing but the clothes on his back and an honourable discharge. The Captain bears numerous wounds and scars, both mental and physical. Unfortunately, his initial temperance towards civilians has been strained at best, due to the detachment of war for civilians. For the most part Ma’am, many civilians don’t even know that Equestria’s gone to war let alone felt the direct repercussions. Riot fell through the cracks of the over-burdened Equestrian veteran care program, despite his advanced condition and dangerous background. His presence was made known by the Ponyville anti-veteran movement, and subsequently Princess Celestia's direct confrontation with the group. Riot has been given cursory support from the new veteran group based in Canterlot, but seems to be improving beyond all healthy expectations. Permission to reinstate his rank, in case Haven Hammer becomes a reality. In my personal opinion Ma’am, the captain is the kind of pony we want in our corner, not our enemies. If he were to be set against us somehow, the consequences could be disastrous. On that note, he may be a liability, and possibly dangerous to those around him, due to his advanced ‘condition’.
