Nouvelle décoration qui a été approuvée par la reine en février 1993, en même temps que la Médaille de la vaillance militaire, et qui vise à reconnaître «des services distingués accomplis avec courage face à l’ennemi». Le Canada a créé cette décoration parce que, depuis 1972, il ne disposait pas de médaille distincte pour reconnaître les actes de bravoure militaire.
