To amend title 10, United States Code, to direct the Secretary of the Army to establish a combat artillery medal.

H.R. 1127 is a bill that would require the Secretary of the Army to create a new military award called the "combat artillery medal." This medal would be awarded to Army artillery members who personally participated in combat operations at any time after April 5, 1917.

The bill aims to provide formal recognition for artillery soldiers similar to the Combat Infantryman Badge or Combat Medical Badge, which are awarded to other specific branches for service under fire. If passed, the medal would be available to both current service members and veterans who met the combat criteria during past conflicts, including World War I, World War II, and subsequent engagements.
