The Military Merit Medal (Vietnamese: Quân công Bội tinh) was the highest military decoration bestowed upon enlisted personnel by the Republic of Vietnam during the years of the Vietnam War. The medal was established on August 15, 1950. The Military Merit Medal was modeled after the French Médaille Militaire and was awarded mostly to enlisted men for valor in combat. The medal had three different versions, which coincided with the political changes in South Vietnam: the State of Vietnam, the First Republic, and the Second Republic versions. The Vietnamese National Order of Vietnam was considered the equivalent decoration for military officers.
