No, each branch of service has its own medal. Very similar, but different. The medal designs are different, yes, but the award is identical. There is no such thing as an "Air Force Medal of Honor." There is only a Medal of Honor.

Yes, the award is identical ("He was awarded the CMH"), but like you said the physical medal if different for each branch.

Who said "Medal of Honor"? The article only says "Air Force Cross."
Or has there been a subsequent edit?
