The Distinguished Service Medal (abbrev. DSM) is a Manticoran military decoration which is awarded only to enlisted personnel and non-commissioned officers of the Royal Manticoran Army. The ribbon color is light blue with crimson tips and a single gold center stripe. It is awarded to Enlisted soldiers who perform extreme gallantry and risk of life in combat with an enemy force but do not qualify for an award of the Parliamentary Medal of Valor. The recipients of the medal are entitled to use the postnominal letters of ‘DSM’ after their name. Those receiving further awards may use ‘with cluster’ or ‘with clusters’ as well. The Distinguished Service Medal can be awarded posthumously.
The Distinguished Service Medal is of equivalent level to the Osterman Cross awarded to qualifying Royal Manticoran Navy and Royal Manticoran Marine Corps enlisted personnel.
