Saint George Award

Saint George Award

History of the Saint George Award

In 1986 the United States Armor Association began an awards program to honor the very best of America's tankers and Cavalry troopers. The Saint George Award program provides the mounted force with a way to recognize outstanding performers, their spouses (Order of St. Joan D'Arc Medallion) and Armor Force supporters (Noble Patron of Armor Award).

Eligibility for the Saint George Award

The "Saint George Award" recognizes the finest tankers and cavalrymen with this Bronze medallion. In order to qualify for this award, soldiers must be recognized as the very best at what they do.
