Kyoto, Yamatai - In a memo today, Taisho Ketsurui-Shinjuku Hanako, the new commander Star Army Personnel, announced that she would be conducting a review of Star Army of Yamatai awards and medals and making revisions as needed in the upcoming month and implementing the changes at the start of YE 43.
Hanako said she was reviewing the similar medals of the Tenure Award (also called the Notable Career Award), Distinguished Career Award, and Experience Award and considering a merge. As an example, the function of the exerience award is essentially the same as a Service Award with a 5 pinned on it and is therefore redundant.
One change has already been announced: The Starship Award's requirements will be changed from serving on 3 starships to serving as regular crew on any Star Army of Yamatai starship and it will now be possible to recieve multiple starship awards, one for each starship. This can be marked on the award with numbered pins in the style of the service award.
The Star Army is also considering adding additional awards as well, such as some for combat kills, marksmanship, martial arts, and so forth.
