Medal of Bravery

A medal of valor was an award given for heroic efforts by the Rebel Alliance.

After Luke Skywalker destroyed the Galactic Empire's feared battle station, the Death Star, with the assistance of Han Solo, Leia Organa presented them both with medals of honor. She placed the medals around their necks in a special ceremony held at the rebel base on Yavin 4 following the battle.
