For the decoration to be awarded, an individual must have performed a voluntary act of heroism in the face of great personal danger or of such a magnitude that it stands out distinctly above normal expectations. The Coast Guard Medal was first authorized by {{usc|14|493}} on 4 August 1949,[2] but it was not until 1958 that the medal was actually bestowed. The first recipients of the Coast Guard Medal were FN Earl H. Leyda and BM3 Albert Raymond Johnson who were awarded the decoration in March 1958.[3] The citation for the Coast Guard Medal was for actions performed in August 1957 while attempting to rescue trapped workers from the Oswego Water Works Tunnel, under Lake Ontario, in Oswego, New York. Additional awards of the Coast Guard Medal are annotated by {{frac|5|16}} inch gold stars.[2] The Coast Guard Medal is the equivalent to the Soldier's Medal, Airman's Medal, and Navy and Marine Corps Medal.
