Answer:
The Medal of Honor is the United States of America's highest and most-prestigious personal military decoration that may be awarded to recognize U.S. military service members who have distinguished themselves by acts of valor.[3] The medal is normally awarded by the President of the United States in the name of the U.S. Congress. Because the medal is presented "in the name of Congress", it is often incorrectly referred to as the "Congressional Medal of Honor". However, the official name of the current award is "Medal of Honor".[1][4] Within the United States Code the medal is referred to as the "Medal of Honor",[5] and less frequently as "Congressional Medal of Honor".[6] U.S. awards, including the Medal of Honor, do not have post-nominal titles, and while there is no official abbreviation, the most common abbreviations are "MOH" and "MH".[7]
