| 1 | Virtual Distinguished Flying Cross 5 |
a. CRITERIA REQUIREMENTS. Awarded to any person who, while serving in any capacity with the VVNAVY, distinguishes himself/herself by heroism or extraordinary achievement while participating in aerial flight combat involving conflict with a non-VVNAVY opposing force as part of a CNO officially sanctioned ladder or tournament or in successful completion of an aerial flight combat mission as part of a VVNAVY wide, CNO approved scenario driven mission.
(1) To justify this decoration for heroism, an act in the face of danger, well above those actions performed by others engaged in similar flight operations, is required; for achievement, the results accomplished must be so exceptional as to render them conspicuous among those accomplished by others involved in similar circumstances.
(2) In adjudging the appropriate awards for the various members of a flight crew, it is considered that the pilot responsible for flying the aircraft is sometimes eligible for a higher award than other members of the flight crew. However, in a two-seat aircraft where the pilot and crewmember constitute a team and function as an integral part of the weapons system, both would generally be eligible for the same award. A crewmember other than the pilot should not be precluded from receiving a higher award if circumstances so indicate. Each case will be considered on its own merits.
(3) Establishment of a new aerial record does not necessarily qualify as an extraordinary achievement in aerial flight.
b. VIRTUAL COMBAT DISTINGUISHING DEVICE. The Virtual Combat Distinguishing Device may be authorized for valor (heroism).

(2) To justify this decoration, accomplishment or performance of duty above that normally expected, and sufficient to distinguish the individual among those performing comparable duties is required, and would be consider to be of the level of the Virtual Silver Star or a heroic achievement in combat, or slightly less than the requirements for Virtual Legion of Merit for meritorious service. Minor acts of heroism in training or single acts of merit or meritorious service in connection with military or naval operations may justify this award.
b. Virtual Combat Distinguishing Device. The Combat Distinguishing Device may be authorized for valor (heroism).
