Talk:Department of the Army Civilian Service Commendation Medal

Change to Name and Medal of Award
Per message from the US Army Institute of Heraldry dated 13 Feb 2017, they made a premature change to their website which reflected proposed changes to Army civilian medals. Although the new medals were approved by SecArmy in 2014, new regulations are still in the staffing process. Per the message: "The proposed change to the civilian awards system is still in the staffing process so the current AR 672-20 (Incentive Awards) is still valid.  The TIOH website prematurely updated the section on civilian awards and we are in the process of returning this section to mirror current regulations." The current website contains correct information on this award.Eastcote (talk) 01:19, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
