This is not an official U.S. military decoration.

Congress included language in the Fiscal Year 2002 National Defense Authorization Act authorizing the Secretary of Defense to consider issuance of a Cold War Service Medal. However, the Secretary of Defense decided not to issue a Cold War Service Medal. A previous Secretary of Defense authorized issuance of a Cold War Recognition Certificate to recognize all service members and federal civilian employees who faithfully served the United States during the Cold War era, which is available by application [1].

Cold War commemorative medals have been designed and manufactured by a military memoribilia companies, from which it can be purchased. However, there is no Cold War Medal issued by National Personnel Records Center or the Service awards branches.

Public domain The graphic is a representation of an award or decoration of the U.S. military. It is in the public domain because it contains materials that originally came from a United States Military Award. As a work of the U.S. federal government, the image is in the public domain.
