| - The Confederate Cross was the highest award bestowed by the Confederate military.
- This award has existed since the inception of the Confederacy, and continues to be issued. The award parameters have never changed, and still entail "any person serving in any capacity in the military, who has distinguished themselves in action with the military, or in operations conducted with friendly foreign forces, by taking extraordinarily heroic action at the risk of life sufficient to set the individual apart from his or her comrades." This award is often given in lieu of another, higher award, or when the action or actions was thought insufficient for a higher award.
