Hello, I'm Quenhitran. I noticed that you made a change to an article, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — ALittle Que nhi  ( talk to me ) 16:41, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Details on the Air Medal
Army Regulation 600-8-22 indicates that "the Air Medal is awarded to any person who, while serving in any capacity in or with the U.S. Army, will have distinguished himself or herself by meritorious achievement while participating in aerial flight. Awards may be made to recognize single acts of merit or heroism, or for meritorious service..."

You don't have to be an aviator or a flight crew member. It seems to me that someone like David Hackworth commanding and controlling units from a helicopter or directing from a helicopter engagements by other helicopters against enemy troops on the ground would qualify for this award.
