Civilian Pin

There is a civilian equivalent to the SWP called the Civilian Pin. Details can be found on the Civilian Pin page.

Manticoran Combat Action Medal

The Manticoran Combat Action Medal is issued by the Sixth Space Lord for the successful completion of the requirements for either the Enlisted or Officers Space Warfare Pin, plus additional courses bringing your total number of courses passed to 40. The additional courses above and beyond those required for your Space Warfare Pin can be from any BuTrain course offerings. Officers must meet the requirements for the Officer SWP and enlisted must meet the requirements for the Enlisted SWP.

The original award is only issued once; however additional awards (stars and wreaths) may be attached to the ribbon for each additional 35 courses passed.

Applying for the MCAM

Once you've completed the requirements, MEDUSA automatically notifies the Office of the Sixth Space Lord. Announcements are posted in the TRMN Forums (https://forums.trmn.org/viewforum.php?f=470) monthly (on or around the 4th of the month for the previous month's awards).

For every additional 35 exams completed, you earn a cluster or wreath, depending on your total number of completed exams. MEDUSA will notify the Office of the Sixth Space Lord and your additional MCAM will be included in the monthly announcement.

MCAMs are added, or updated, on your Ribbon Rack in your service record in MEDUSA on or around the 4th of every month for awards earned the previous month.
