Meritorious Honor Award Ribbon

The Meritorious Honor Award, granted by the United States Department of State, recognizes individuals or groups for a special act, service, or sustained outstanding performance. Versions of this award also existed for the former U.S. Information Agency, Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, and USAID. Recipients receive a certificate signed by an assistant secretary, an official of equivalent rank, or the Chief of Mission. While the Foreign Affairs Manual (FAM) initially mentioned a medal set, a 2007 ALDAC clarified that medals are no longer issued.
