Hussars Medals
Here at the Hussars, we value the skills that sets a chap apart from the run-of-the-mill soldier. Fatally. Here then are some special awards that are given out to other Hussars, most of which involve death for at least one Hussar. 
Bars: These are represented by a silver acorn on the medal ribbon (because it is a kind of nut and that seemed somehow appropriate), and represent THREE or more awards of the same medal. 
Britney Bar: This is a special version of a medal awarded for multiple instances in the same gaming session, as in her song "Oops, I did it again".
     AWOL medal (AWM)
Awarded for outstanding or prolific wanderlust on the battlefield, as demonstrated by Capt. Rum and his affinity for windmills.

Awarded (posthumously) for heroic application of explosive packs against the enemy whilst closer than the recommended safe distance
     Dougie Haig medal (DHM)

Awarded for a high number of deaths in a short period of time (by the enemy). Also awarded for a spectacularly large number of deaths on any given game round. 		     Purple Penguin (PP) 
Penguins (as we all know) cannot fly. neither can the winners of this award, who fail to survive their sudden (and often unexpected) departure from the aircraft they nominally flying.
     Swiss Navy Star (SNS) 
Awarded for the "special" aptitude demonstrated when grounding your naval vessel for no obvious reason. 		     Undistinguished Flying Cross (UFC) 
Awarded for repeated collisions of the mid-air variety or with tall easily avoided buildings such as church spires or towers.
     Vehicle Roll Medal (VRM)

Awarded for pilots who seem incapable of escaping the lure of the ground vegetation or ground-based objects (hills, small buildings) 		     Mad Bomber Medal (MBM) 
Similar to the Bombadier medal, but awarded for engineers whose eagerness to see pyrotechnic displays is undampened by the proximity of team-mates (sadly now departed) to the explosives.
     Visually Impaired Sniper Medal (VSIM) 
Awarded for those special displays of"bluntshooting", where a sniper skillfully and carefully picks off a member of his own side by mistake. 		     "Golden" Grenade Medal (GGM) 
Awarded for managing to drop those little explosive bundles of joy in the middle of your own team instead of the enemy who were presumably the intended targets.
     Vanishing Driver Medal (VDM) 
Awarded to those pilots and drivers who without warning, bravely flee from their vehicles, or move off in vehicles team mates were using as cover, exposing the startled chaps to sudden and (most likely) fatal danger. 		     Obtuse-Missile Gunner Medal (OMGM) 
The opposite of "smart-bombs" and "smart-missiles", these ones are so dense they make "dumb-file" missiles look intelligent. This medal is awarded for a pilot or gunner who uses homing missiles that strike friendly targets or (even better) his own vehicle.
     Darwin Military Award (DWA) 
Awarded to those people who when given weapons and placed near highly explosive containers, or fragile structures, cannot resist the urge to remove themselves from the gene pool by opening fire at it. 		     Professional Incompetence Metal (PIM)

     Drop-Kick Medal (DKM) 
Named in honour of Dropkick Murphy, this award is similar to the Order of Miggins (Flying Miggins), but where the teamkill that caused the person to be kicked was due to the actions of another player rather than their own. 		     Look, No Hands Award (LNHA)
