Combat Action Medal
The Combat Action Medal (CAM), formerly known as the Air Force Combat Action Medal (AFCAM), is a decoration of the United States Air Force and United States Space Force to recognize airmen and guardians for active participation in ground or air combat. The CAM was first awarded on June 12, 2007 as the Air Force Combat Action Medal, to six airmen who were engaged in air or ground combat off base in a combat zone during Operation Enduring Freedom (Afghanistan, October 7, 2001 – December 28, 2015) or Operation Iraqi Freedom (Iraq, March 19, 2003 – September 1, 2010). The medal is retroactive from September 11, 2001 forward to a date to be determined and may be awarded posthumously. On 16 November 2020, the Air Force Combat Action Medal was renamed to the Combat Action Medal by the Secretary of the Air Force.
