АҚШ әскери марапаты
United States military award
Президенттік бірлік марапаты (ПУК), бастапқыда Ерекше бірлік марапаты деп аталған, АҚШ-тың және одақтас елдердің қарулы күштерінің бөлімдеріне, 1941 жылдың 7 желтоқсанында немесе одан кейін (Перл-Харборға шабуыл күні және Екінші дүниежүзілік соғысқа АҚШ-тың қатысуының басталуы) қарулы жауға қарсы ерлік көрсеткені үшін беріледі. Бөлім өте қиын және қауіпті жағдайларда міндетін орындау кезінде айқайшап ерлік, нығайып тұру және бірлік рухын көрсетуі керек, бұл оны сол науқанға қатысқан басқа бөлімдерден ерекшелендіруі тиіс. 1942 жылдың 26 ақпанында президент Франклин Д. Рузвельттің 9075-ші жарлыққа қол қоюымен, 1941 жылдың 7 желтоқсанына дейін кері күшімен, 2008 жылға дейін Президенттік бірлік марапаты Екінші дүниежүзілік соғыс, Корея соғысы, Вьетнам соғысы, Ирак соғысы және Ауғанстандағы соғыс сияқты қақтығыстарда берілді. ПУК-қа ұсынылған бөлімнің қарулы жауға қарсы ерлік дәрежесі (жауынгерлік ерлік) Жеке қызмет көрсеткендерге берілетін Ерекше қызмет ордені, Әуе күштері ордені немесе Әскери-теңіз күштері орденіне лайық болу деңгейімен бірдей. Кейбір жағдайларда, бөлімдегі бір немесе бірнеше адам өздерінің бөліміне Президенттік бірлік марапаты берілген іс-қимылдарға қосқан үлесі үшін жеке марапаттарға ие болуы мүмкін. Президенттік бірлік марапатын ең көп алған бөлімдер – «Парче» суасты кемесі және 1-ші теңізшілер дивизиясы, екеуі де тоғыз марапатқа ие.
The Presidential Unit Citation (PUC), originally called the Distinguished Unit Citation, is awarded to units of the uniformed services of the United States, and those of allied countries, for extraordinary heroism in action against an armed enemy on or after 7 December 1941 (the date of the Attack on Pearl Harbor and the start of American involvement in World War II). The unit must display such gallantry, determination, and esprit de corps in accomplishing its mission under extremely difficult and hazardous conditions so as to set it apart from and above other units participating in the same campaign. Since its inception by President Franklin D. Roosevelt with the signing of Executive Order 9075 on 26 February 1942, retroactive to 7 December 1941, to 2008, the Presidential Unit Citation has been awarded in conflicts such as World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, Iraq War, and the War in Afghanistan. The collective degree of valor (combat heroism) against an armed enemy by the unit nominated for the PUC is the same as that which would warrant award of the individual award of the Distinguished Service Cross, Air Force Cross or Navy Cross. In some cases, one or more individuals within the unit may have also been awarded individual awards for their contribution to the actions for which their entire unit was awarded a Presidential Unit Citation. The units with the most Presidential Unit Citations are submarine Parche and the 1st Marine Division, both with nine citations.
Әскери, әуе және ғарыш күштері
Армияның аталмасы 1942 жылдың 26 ақпанында 9075-ші жарлықпен бекітіліп, 1943 жылдың 2 желтоқсанында 9396-шы жарлықпен алмастырылды, ол Ерекше бірлік аталмасын санкциялады. Басқа әскерлік бірліктердің аталмалары сияқты, PUC басқа ленталардан үлкенірек және оң жақ қалтаның үстінде тағылады. Бірліктің барлық мүшелері, олар жеке өзі бірлікке қатысты іс-әрекеттерге қатысқан-қатыспағанына қарамастан, осы марапатты тағуға құқылы; тек сол іс-әрекет кезінде бірлікке бекітілген мүшелер ғана осы марапатты тұрақты түрде тағуға құқылы. Әскер, Әуе және Ғарыш күштерінің нышаны – алтын шеңберге ендірілген қызыл-көк лента. Әуе және Ғарыш күштерінің PUC-і 1947 жылы Әуе күштері жеке әскери сала болып құрылғаннан кейін Армияның Ерекше бірлік аталмасынан алынған. 1957 жылдың 10 қаңтарындағы 10694-ші жарлықпен Әуе күштері департаменті Ерекше бірлік аталмасын Президенттік бірлік аталмасы деп қайта атады. Әуе және Ғарыш күштерінің PUC-і Армияның PUC-імен бірдей түс пен дизайнға ие, бірақ сәл кішкентай, сондықтан оны жеке марапаттардан кейін сол жақ қалтадағы басқа Әуе және Ғарыш күштерінің ленталарымен үйлестіре тағуға болады. Армиядағыдай, марапат алған бірліктің барлық мүшелері оған бекітілген кезде осы марапатты тағуға құқылы, бірақ тек сол іс-әрекет кезінде бірлікке бекітілгендер ғана осы марапатты тұрақты түрде тағуға құқылы; немесе егер марапат алған бірліктің кез келген мүшесі босатылғанға немесе зейнеткерлікке шыққанға дейін соңғы қызмет орнында болса, олар белгіленген тәртіп бойынша осы марапатты тағуды жалғастыра алады. Аталма марапат алған бірліктің туында 1 метр ұзындығы және 4 фут ені бар көк түсті лента түрінде бейнеленеді. Армияда, сирек жағдайларда ғана батальоннан үлкен бірлік осы марапатқа ие болуға лайық. Президенттік бірлік аталмасының екі нұсқасын ажырату үшін, көбінесе Президенттік бірлік аталмасы деп аталатын Әскери-теңіз күштерінің нұсқасы Әскери-теңіз күштерінің Президенттік бірлік аталмасы деп аталады және кейде "Әскери-теңіз күштері мен теңіз жаяу әскерлерінің Президенттік бірлік аталмасы" деп аталады. Лента тек марапаттың "марапат кезеңіне" бірлікке бекітілген Әскери-теңіз күштері мен теңіз жаяу әскерлерінің қызметкерлері ғана тағады. Армияда "марапат кезеңінен" кейін бірлікке қосылғандар да бірлікке бекітілген кезде оны тағуға құқылы. ALNan 137 43-те бірінші марапат лентасында көк эмальды жұлдыз және келесі марапаттар үшін қосымша жұлдыздар бар екені айтылған. 1945 жылы Әскери-теңіз күштерінің хатшысы Иво Джима ПУК-ін "және оған қосылған немесе қызмет ететіндердің барлығы" деген сөздерсіз жазды. 1949 жылы марапат бірінші марапатқа жұлдызсыз, ал келесі марапаттарға қола жұлдыздармен өзгертілді.
The Army citation was established by Executive Order 9075 on 26 February 1942, superseded by Executive Order 9396 on 2 December 1943, which authorized the Distinguished Unit Citation. As with other Army unit citations, the PUC is in a larger frame than other ribbons, and is worn above the right pocket. All members of the unit may wear the decoration, whether or not they personally participated in the acts for which the unit was cited; only those members assigned to the unit at the time of the action cited may wear the decoration as a permanent award. For both the Army, Air Force, and Space Force the emblem is a solid blue ribbon enclosed in a gold frame. The Air and Space Forces PUC was adopted from the Army Distinguished Unit Citation after the Air Force became a separate military branch in 1947. By Executive Order 10694, dated Jan. 10, 1957 the Department of the Air Force redesignated the Distinguished Unit Citation as the Presidential Unit Citation. The Air and Space Forces PUC is the same color and design as the Army PUC but slightly smaller, so that it can be worn in alignment with other Air Force and Space Force ribbons on the left pocket following personal awards. As with the Army, all members of a receiving unit may wear the decoration while assigned to it, but only those assigned to the unit at the time of the action cited may wear the decoration as a permanent award; or if any member of a receiving unit had it at their last duty station prior to being either discharged or retired, they may continue to wear the decoration as prescribed. The Citation is carried on the receiving unit's colors in the form of a blue streamer, 4 feet (1 m) long and wide. For the Army, only on rare occasions will a unit larger than battalion qualify for award of this decoration. To distinguish between the two versions of the Presidential Unit Citation, the Navy version which is more often referred to simply as the Presidential Unit Citation, is referred to as the Navy Presidential Unit Citation and sometimes as the "Navy and Marine Corps Presidential Unit Citation". The ribbon is worn by only by those Navy and Marine service members who were assigned to the unit for the "award period" of the award. In the Army, those who join the unit after the "award period" may also wear it while assigned to the unit. ALNan 137 43 states that the first award has a blue enameled star on the ribbon and additional stars for subsequent awards. In 1945 the Secretary of the Navy wrote the Iwo Jima PUC without the line "and all those attached to or serving with". In 1949, the award was changed with no star for the first award and bronze stars for subsequent awards.
USS Nautilus (SSN-571) кемесі
1958 жылы ядролық қуатпен жүретін "Наутилус" су асты кемесінің Солтүстік полюстің астынан алғашқы су асты сапарын жасағандығын еске алу үшін, сол сапарға қатысқан экипаж мүшелерінің барлығына алтын әріп "N" пішіндес арнайы бекіткіші бар Президенттік бірлік мақтау белгісінің лентасын тағуға рұқсат берілді. АҚШ-тың Коннектикут штатындағы Гротон қаласындағы Су асты күштері мұражайындағы USS Nautilus ескерткішіне бекітілген теңізшілер, қызмет етіп жүргенде "N" белгісі бар Теңіз күштерінің Президенттік бірлік мақтау белгісін тағуға құқылы. 2014 жылдан бастап, дәл осы белгіні зымырандық кешенге 179 күн (қатарынан емес) жіберілген және баллистикалық ракеталармен жұмыс істейтін персоналға Ядролық қарсы тұру операциялары қызметінің медалімен бірге беруге болады.
To commemorate the first submerged voyage under the North Pole by the nuclear powered submarine Nautilus in 1958, all members of her crew who made that voyage were authorized to wear their Presidential Unit Citation ribbon with a special clasp in the form of a gold block letter N. U. S. Navy sailors assigned to the USS Nautilus memorial at the Submarine Force Museum in Groton, Connecticut, are permitted to wear the Navy Presidential Unit Citation with "N" device while serving there. As of 2014, the same device may be awarded for the Nuclear Deterrence Operations Service Medal for those personnel who work in direct support of ICBM operations who serve 179 non consecutive days dispatched to a missile complex.
USS Triton (SSRN-586)
1960 жылы ядролық қуатпен жүретін "Тритон" суасты кемесінің сынақ сапарында әлемді су астынан алғашқы рет айналып өтуінің құрметіне, сол саяхатқа қатысқан экипаж мүшелерінің барлығына Президенттік бірлік мақтау таспасын, жер шарының алтын түстес бейнесі түріндегі арнайы бекіткішпен бірге тағуға рұқсат етілді.
To commemorate the first submerged circumnavigation of the world by the nuclear powered submarine Triton during its shakedown cruise in 1960, all members of her crew who made that voyage were authorized to wear their Presidential Unit Citation ribbon with a special clasp in the form of a golden replica of the globe.
Жағалау күзеттері
АҚШ Жағалау күзетінің бөлімшелеріне Президенттік бірлік атағының Әскери-теңіз күштері немесе Жағалау күзетінің нұсқасы берілуі мүмкін, бұл атау іс-қимыл орындалған кезде Жағалау күзеті қай қызметті қолдағандығына байланысты. Аталған марапаттың қазіргі түрі – «Ұлттық қауіпсіздік департаментінің Президенттік бірлік марапаты». Алғашқы Жағалау күзетінің Президенттік бірлігі 1957 жылдың 10 қаңтарында президент Дуайт Д. Эйзенхауэр қол қойған 10694-ші атқарушы бұйрық бойынша құрылған, ал 2003 жылдың 28 ақпанында президент Джордж Буш қол қойған 13286-шы атқарушы бұйрықтың 74-тармағымен АҚШ Жағалау күзетінің Президенттік бірлік марапатын Ұлттық қауіпсіздік департаментінің хатшысына беруге өзгеріс енгізілді.
United States Coast Guard units may be awarded either the Navy or Coast Guard version of the Presidential Unit Citation, depending on which service the Coast Guard was supporting when the citation action was performed. The current decoration is known as the "Department of Homeland Security Presidential Unit Citation". The original Coast Guard Presidential Unit Citation was established under the authority of Executive Order 10694 (signed by President Dwight D. Eisenhower on January 10, 1957), and amended by Section 74 of Executive Order 13286 (signed by President George W. Bush on February 28, 2003) to transfer the award of the USCG PUC to the Secretary of Homeland Security.
Арнайы тұйықтауыш
Жағалау күзетінің нұсқасы АҚШ Жағалау күзеті мен Жағалау күзетінің қосымша құрамының барлық қызметкерлеріне президент Джордж Буш тарапынан 2005 жылдың 29 тамызынан 13 қыркүйегіне дейін "Катрина" даулына жауап ретінде жүргізілген құтқару және көмек көрсету операциялары үшін табыс етілді. "Катрина" даулына жауап бергендердің барлығы халықаралық деңгейде танылған дауыл символы түріндегі арнайы бекіткіші бар Президенттік бөлімше мақтау таспасын тағуға құқылы.

Bush for rescue and relief operations in response to Hurricane Katrina from 29 August 2005 to 13 September 2005. All who received the award for responding to Hurricane Katrina are authorized to wear the Presidential Unit Citation ribbon with a special clasp in the form of the internationally recognized hurricane symbol.
