A medal that carries the name of Carl Gustav Mannerheim, a known military leader in the days before interplanetary travel. It is the highest singular award a citizen of FRR can achieve. Mannerheim cross is a rarely awarded medal, 'For extraordinary courage, extremely valuable goals achieved in combat or a military operation lead with exceeding success'. Members of Kungsarme from all branches are eliglible for this medal. However most often it has been awarded to mechwarriors.	Mannerheim Cross
Rasalhague Star	A silver star with embedded sapphires (Due to the color of the sun on Rasalhague system) and a green emerald symbolising the paradise of Rasalhague's rough living conditions away from oppressive Terra, represented to original forefathers. Rasalhague star is awarded for excellent performance in military duty and is more common than the respected Mannerheim cross. This is a medal that all members of Kungsarme may recieve.
Iron cross is a very prestigious medal, that is recognized by all branches. It's history lies in the Terran Germany and it has since been included in the Rasalhagian heraldry due to its prestige and the fact that even some Scandinavians have recieved this medal in the bygone days. Its appearance is quite spartan, but it has by far more spiritual value than earthly. Kungsarme Iron Cross is awarded for extraordinary military service career (Or in some rare cases for some singular campaign) This medal is available only for mechwarriors.	Kungsarme Iron Cross
Service Medal	A medal awarded for either examplary military achievements or sometimes as an lifetime award of services for Kungsarme. This is a more common type of medals seen with soldiers, but by no means is such a medal common sight. Though with the advent of clan onslaught, one has seen more feats of extraordinary heroism that in the times when the greatest threat was an occasional periphery raid by pirates.
A simple hammer formed from a ceramic armor plate. This medal is held by some mechwarriors as the medal to compete for it is awarded to the warrior of Kungsarme that has the highest kill tonnage for each year. Warrior may be from any branch of Kungsarme from engagement in any field of military where a single warrior can claim the kill tonnage singly to himself. This medal is also very rare.	Thor's Hammer
Heimdall's Shield	Awarded for extraordinary dedication for protecting civilian lives and property. It can even sometimes be awarded to a civilian under extraordinary circumstances. Leader of the successfull clan resistance in XX, Helmar Sigursson has be awarded such medal, even though he has since then enlisted, he was at that time a civilian who earned this reward.
This medal, like Iron cross is a relic from Terran days. And this medal is also very highly honored and possession of it most certainly means that the warrior in question surely knows his/hers profession well. In the medal is displayed an eagle carrying the aerospace emblem. Kungsarme Iron Eagle is very rare and only available for the Aerotech pilots. It is the highest form of acknowledgement, the stuff of which legends are made of. Tyra Miraborg was awarded the Kungsarme Iron Eagle posthumously. Only a few have been awarded to date.

Valkyrie Wings	Awarded for examplary performance or heroism in the line of duty. This medal is only available for aerospace/LAM pilots. The most common medal found with aerospace pilots, highly appreciated nonetheless.
Grand Cross, first class, awarded for military merits. Liberty Cross, second class, awarded for civilian merits.	Liberty Cross
Order of White Rose	Is an medal which is awarded to citizens of Rasalhague for civilian merits. Highest medal in the order is Grand Cross of the White Rose. These medals are often awarded for more civilian oriented pursuits than the others depicted here.
Tyr Cluster is awarded to any member of FRR (Sometimes it may even be awarded to a person not a citizen) that has done something to preserve or further the liberty of Rasalhague. This medal is a starfield set on a silver mesh. Many of these medals have been posthumopusly awarded to participants of the Tyr underground movement and fighters who took part on the counterfighting during Ronin rebellion. This medal represents most purely the ideals that Free Rasalhague Republic stands for, independence, courage and freedom of choice.	Tyr Cluster
