(4) Personnel aboard a ship are eligible when the safety of the ship and the crew were endangered by enemy attack, such as a ship hit by a mine or a ship engaged by shore, surface, air or sub-surface elements. (5) Personnel eligible for the award of the Virtual Purple Heart would not necessarily qualify for the Virtual Combat Action Ribbon. b. The Virtual Combat Action Ribbon will not be awarded to personnel for aerial combat since the Strike/Flight Virtual Air Medal provides recognition for aerial combat exposure; however, a pilot or crewmember forced to escape or evade after being forced down could be eligible for the award. c. LIMITATIONS. Only one award per mission is authorized. No image
