Summary
H.R. 1308 would establish a specific "Combat Medevac Badge" to recognize the service of helicopter medical evacuation pilots and crew members. This honor would be awarded to eligible service members who served in combat roles from June 25, 1950, to the present day. For veterans and active-duty personnel, this bill provides formal military recognition of the unique risks and contributions associated with performing life-saving medical missions in active combat zones.
