Greetings,

The White House posted a press release a couple weeks ago regarding the latest recipients of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. I’m curious to know if any recipients in the past have been armigerous and have used the insignia of the award in their armorial achievements. I believe that the Medal can be awarded "With Distinction" and it then includes a breast star. Is this the only American award that includes such a star? According to our Guidelines for Heraldic Practice, this could then be placed behind the shield as in the Order of Malta, the Order of the Holy Sepulchre, etc. Have a great day.

 

Peace,

Dave

The Legion of Merit in the degree of chief commander also includes a breast star and sash, but is awarded only to foreigners, usually heads of state and government.

 

A while back I did an emblazonment of Colin Powell’s arms with the Medal of Freedom (as well as the Presidential Citizen’s Medal, the Defense Distinguished Service Medal, and his personal flags as Secretary of State and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff) and think I posted it here in the forum.  Anywhere, here it is again.  Off to the sinister side is the obverse of his Congressional Gold Medal.

That’s great, Joe. I must have missed that the last time around. Thanks a lot.

Peace,

Dave
