Medals
Navy and Marine Corps Commendation

(by Admin)
Bronze Star Medal
Reason: AWARDED Star to his Bronze Star Medal (BSM) for bravery and dedication to duty as the platoon's only heavy anti tank weaponeer during the assault on Hill 119, frequently manoeuvring to flank enemy forces to knock out several armoured vehicles despite this exposing him to fire from the remainder of the enemy defensive line during Operation Gravy Den. (by Admin)
Mentioned in Despatches
Reason: AWARDED Mention in Dispatches for his actions in the trench line atop Hill 119, acting as the linchpin of the defences and playing a significant role in throwing back eight separate enemy assaults during Operation Gravy Den. (by Admin)
Navy and Marine Corps Medal
Reason: AWARDED Navy and Marine Corps Medal (NMCM) for using the skills from his previous career as an eastern Ohio pig farmer to treat the heavily wounded Corpsman SM Tylenol while under enemy fire, who was then able to medic other squad casualties to provide sufficient weight of numbers to enable the successful capture of Hill 119 during Operation Gravy Den.

Commendations
LCpl Disco, United States Marine Corps, distinguished herself with conspicuous gallantry as a Squad Leader, 1st Platoon, Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Marines during Operation Gravy Den on 27 July 2024. Commanding Yellow Team, LCpl Disco expertly maneuvered her Marines on the flanks of enemy forces, catching them in pincer fire. Her masterful control of her troops enabled Blue Team to form the lynchpin of the ambush and fight off numerous assault waves. The distinctive accomplishments of LCpl Disco reflect great credit upon herself, the United States Marine Corps, and the Department of Defense.
Operation Gravy Den was a highly fluid situation. There were attacks, counter attacks, defences, counter defences, feints, artillery, air strikes, tanks and a general malaise upon the land. In all of that, Disco had the misfortune of being lumbered with leading a Yellow fire team. Not just any yellow fire team, but Misstep and Chaos. In the heat of battle, with her team on full rock 'n' roll with the volume all the way up, Disco somehow managed to keep track of, and keep alive both of her charges who should probably be on charges for only ever wanting to mount charges. In the heat of combat her orders were clear, decisive and effective, leading to her team being more effective in turn. Top work.
PFC Chaos, United States Marine Corps, distinguished himself with conspicuous gallantry as a Heavy Gunner, 1st Platoon, Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Marines during Operation Gravy Den on 27 July 2024. Holding the lynchpin in the defensive lines, PFC Chaos's accurate fire defeated more than 8 enemy direct assaults. His heroism by remaining at the hottest point in the line enabled friendly forces to defeat major Chelt attacks and secure the Westernmost flank allowing the offensive to succeed. The distinctive accomplishments of PFC Chaos reflect great credit upon himself, the United States Marine Corps, and the Department of Defense.
PVT Misstep, United States Marine Corps, distinguished himself with conspicuous gallantry as Pointman, 1st Platoon, Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Marines during Operation Gravy Den on 27 July 2024. Calling back to his eastern Ohio pig farming roots, PVT Misstep exposed himself to enemy fire to treat the heavily wounded Corpsman SM Tylenol. His expertise in Pig care enabled friendly forces to recover from major Chelt attacks and secure the Westernmost flank allowing the offensive to succeed. The distinctive accomplishments of PVT Misstep reflect great credit upon himself, the United States Marine Corps, and the Department of Defense.

I would like to commend PFC Tubular for his actions in destroying a vehicle-mounted quad heavy machinegun that was suppressing the squad and preventing us from returning fire on the enemy attack that was attacking our position.
PFC Tubular, United States Marine Corps, distinguished himself with conspicuous gallantry as a AT Gunner, 1st Platoon, Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Marines during Operation Gravy Den on 27 July 2024. Servicing the units only heavy anti tank weapon, PFC Tubular bravely maneuvered around enemy forces to knock out several tanks and APCs. His accurate anti tank fire enabled friendly forces to hold their positions in the face of overwhelming odds. The distinctive accomplishments of PFC Tubular reflect great credit upon himself, the United States Marine Corps, and the Department of Defense.
