Distinguished Service Cross (United States Army)

[Jim O]

The Distinguished Service Cross, section 3742, title 10, United States Code (10 USC 3742), was established by Act of Congress July 9, 1918 (amended by act of July 25, 1963).

The Distinguished Service Cross is awarded to a person who while serving in any capacity with the Army, distinguished himself or herself by extraordinary heroism not justifying the award of a Medal of Honor; while engaged in an action against an enemy of the United States; while engaged in military operations involving conflict with an opposing or foreign force; or while serving with friendly foreign forces engaged in an armed conflict against an opposing Armed Force in which the United States is not a belligerent party. The act or acts of heroism must have been so notable and have involved risk of life so extraordinary as to set the individual apart from his or her comrades.

The Distinguished Service Cross is equivalent to the Navy Cross (Navy and Marine Corps) and the Air Force Cross (Air Force) and distinct from the Distinguished Service Medal.
