Starfleet Medals

[Nick086]

Were medals ever awarded onscreen on DS9 during the Dominion War? I know Data was awared eight different medals for bravery in the line of duty. They showed his medals in a display case in The Measure Of A Man. Was it ever stated when he was awarded for each medal? How many medals does Starfleet have? What is each medal awarded for?

A brief reference to Pike occurs in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Tears of the Prophets";[8] Commander Benjamin Sisko receives the "Christopher Pike Medal of Valor" for his actions during the Dominion War.

In TOS "Court-Martial", Captain Kirk's medals are recited by the computer.
