The Silver Star is awarded in all combat services: Army, Navy, Marine Corps, & Coast Guard. The Service Crosses can be awarded outside the service. General Chesty Puller, the most famous Marine, recieved the Army's Distinguished Service Cross along with his five Navy Crosses. Courage is where you find it.
