About the 2023 Ceremony
Our Mission
The Third Medal Ceremony scheduled for March 8, 2023, will recognize and honor six unsung animal heroes for their accomplishments in both war and peace on Capitol Hill, Washington, DC. The Medal Ceremony is hosted by Animals in War & Peace, The Livingood Group, and US War Dogs Association.
The ceremony continues the efforts toward a new Congressional medal to underscore America’s appreciation of the sacrifices and heroics of our American animals who served our country. Two medal categories will be awarded to only six animals.
The Animals in War & Peace Medal of Bravery will be awarded by Members of Congress to animals that served in past wars (posthumous), and current working or retired military dogs representing U.S. military services, service animals and first responders, for their courage and sacrifice.
The Animals in War & Peace Distinguished Service Medal will also be awarded by Members of Congress and presented to animals distinguished by their exceptionally meritorious service to the U.S. in a duty of great responsibility.
