As and ye shall receive

Here's the Order for Brave Deeds - also established in 1965 (you will find that the January 18, 1965 honors restructuring added many, many new decorations), it pretty much replaced the older Order of Bravery though that was not official until 1980. This was awarded for bravery in battle and against infiltrators. Note that while the pic shows the pin to be of kilter, that is how it was made - quality control was not always that great.
