The Philippine Campaign Medal is a medal of the United States Armed Forces which was created to denote service of U.S. military members in the Philippine-American War between the years of 1899 and 1913. Although a single service medal, the Philippine Campaign Medal was issued under separate criteria for both the United States Army and the U.S. Navy. The Philippine Campaign Medal was a separate award from the Philippine Congressional Medal, which was an Army medal awarded for special services rendered during the Philippine-American War. ==Army== The Army’s version of the Philippine Campaign Medal was established on January 12, 1905 by order of the United States War Department. The medal was authorized to any Army service member who had served in campaigns ashore, on the Philippine Islands, from February 4, 1899 to a date which was then yet to be determined. In January 1914, the Philippine Campaign Medal was declared closed with the following the approved operations for issuance. * Any action in the Philippines between February 4, 1899 and July 4, 1902. * Service in the Department of Mindanao between February 4, 1899 and December 31, 1904. * Actions against the Pulajanes on Leyte Island between July 20, 1906 and June 30, 1907 * Military actions on Samar between August 2, 1904, and June 30, 1907. * Military actions against Pala on Jolo between April and May, 1905. * Military actions against Datu Ali on Mindanao in October 1905. * Military actions against hostile Moros on Mount Bud-Dajo, Jolo in March 1906. * Military actions against hostile Moros on Mount Bagsac, Jolo, between January and July 1913. * Military actions against hostile Moros on Mindanao or Jolo between 1910 and 1913. * Any action in which a U.S. service member was killed or wounded between February 4, 1899, and December 31, 1913. The Army’s Philippine Campaign Medal was issued as a one time service medal regardless of the number of campaigns in which a service member participated. The Silver Citation Star was authorized for those who had performed feats of heroism or bravery. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Philippine Campaign Medal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
