Nations throughout the centuries have used honours systems to recognize gallantry, bravery, outstanding achievement and meritorious service. Such a system allows for official recognition of outstanding and meritorious service to the community, exceptional acts of bravery by both civilians and military personnel, and notable service in particular fields, including the armed, fire and police services and for public service. This publication provides a guide to Australia's national system of honours, awards, medals and decorations
