Medal of Honor
This medal signifies those who have proven themselves to be of the utmost integrity which is a distinction of their respect towards fellow members, the laws of Warrior Nation, and the basis of our belief in regards to brotherhood and unity. They are a brilliant example to all other members of Warrior Nation.
When he was promoted to Battle Operations Captain of Area 51 back in August 07, the section was at 23 primary members. The number sounds rather okay, however the ingame activity did not at all reflect the amount of members as most of the members were inactive. It was a rarity to see successful game nights and there were hardly any attempts to create any tournaments. The section lacked new recruits however had to struggle with members leaving on good and on bad terms.
It was the great attitude of WNxBelfegor that saved the section. He implemented weekly practices, that at first were quite unsuccessful but on the long run developed to a stable gaming party of the members. I know a lot of members that give up after one or two unsuccessful game nights, but WNxBelfegor's ambition to improve the section kept him on line trying and trying again. He sent out mass PMs and messages members on Xfire to make sure they come to the Game Night.
Additionally he's a very good motivator and recruiter. He's constantly on the look-out for new recruits and thereby recruited the current FO Captain of the section, WNxOctomusPrime, who then recruited the section's CJ, WNxBasketofpuppies. This shows that without the recruiting efforts made by WNxBelfegor, the section would be lacking several key members. Of course there are MANY other members Belfegor recruited. Even though some left the clan, he does never give up.
Apart from his recruitment he is also a great organizer. He organized several big Deathmatch tournaments as well as a 1v1 tournament. He participated in the Slaughter your BO event, and motivated our section to participate in the Smacktorium Challenge, which was therefore won by one of our members, WNxOlympian. This wouldn't have been possible without Belfegor because they played a huge amount of games together. He also motivated our section for the FPS Challenge Beta. Although the turnout wasn't as good as hoped for, he stayed motivated and lead the section into the actual FPS Challenge. He prepared the section for this event and he held a game night every night, which made up a great amount of points for the section and explains the good results for the section in the Challenge.
He is also responsible for forum activity holding a weekly slogan contest that receives great appreciation from the members and increased forum activity highly.
He also makes up a huge amount of our diplomacy with other clans. Although Clan matches aren't as popular in the Area 51 community as it is a non-competitive game, he manages several Alliances and makes sure that there is participation of them in the game nights and Tournaments.
A further effort he made is that he created a point system for the section. Although this didn't come into practice yet, he spent a lot of time to create it:

He is also currently creating his own Clan League, which looks very promising and might be the option to get Area 51's competitive part running:

All in all I don't know anyone else that deserves to be awarded this medal more than him. He saved his section, increased the primary members since he was promoted to Battle Operations Captain, created a very stable and active game night system and so on and so on, and he did all that pretty much alone and from scratch.

Medal of Valor
Those that display a profound talent and positive attitude in combat. This medal recognizes those members who have excelled beyond the range of ordinary proficiency and who have used their abilities to better themselves and others.
She is awarded the medal of Valor due to the unlimited hours she spends in game helping other people with their skills. She is very active in the Smactorium, getting smacked and doing some smacking as well.

She is also a very valuable member of the Albatross18 section by helping out with the Hall of Fame forum that took many hours of research on her part by going through members stats and posting them. Also has part in updating this Hall of Fame forum daily. She took this chore on all by herself. There was no need to ask for members willing to do it. She volunteered, like she always does when help is needed anywhere.

She has organized Guild Battles in the section.

Medal of Declaration
Awarded to Majors, Grand Masters, Captains and Honor Guards. These members have surpassed many levels within leadership of their sections.
WNxDeepcutter has made the WN guild in this game more than just a collection of players. They are a digital family. They have a section which diligently cares for all of our members, and in particular, works hard at making new members glad that they joined Warrior Nation.
But that's not what has prompted this award.
Something special happened Friday, March 7th. The Dungeons & Dragons Online section got their rightful guild name back! Back 6 months ago, the Mabar server merged with Argonnessen. After it was announced that the parent server would hold priority for guild names, someone unknown to the nation went to Argonnessen and created Warrior Nation, thus denying it to the section. They had to change the name of the guild to The Warrior Nation. Thanks to WnxDeepcutter's persistence with Turbine, the section now has it’s rightful name.

Medal of Communication
Those that have reached a high level of communication by having a strong presence, positive influence, strive to educate and motivate to improve and participate within Warrior Nation.
WNxZero Devil has done an excellent job with communicating, both as a colonel, and as a friend. He is always checking in on current happenings in the BO forum, and strives to keep in contact with all members of his commissioner crew, regardless of his dial-up internet.
Not only has he mastered the ability to speak his opinion, he is also a great listener, one of the most important skills need for communicating well. If you have a problem, WN related or not, he will always listen intently, then offer his take on the situation.
