Orders of Mercury

The Bronze Order of Mercury (BOM) recognizes those people who have demonstrated the highest standards of integrity, moral character, professional competence and selflessness, and who have contributed significantly to the promotion of the Signal Corps and the Signal Corps Regimental Association.

The Silver Order of Mercury is the Association’s highest award. It will be awarded to those select few who stand above their peers and have made conspicuous long-term significant contributions to the U.S. Army Signal Corps and the Signal Corps Regimental Association (SCRA). This award represents a substantially greater level of contribution over a longer period than the Bronze Order of Mercury. Justification for this award is to be based upon continuous exceptional service to the Association in leadership positions and/or Chapter activities, as well as dedicated service to our Regiment.

The intent of the Brevet Colonel award is to recognize those non-government, government civilians, or uniformed members of the armed forces, other than those of the Signal Regiment, who have made significant contributions over a period of time to the Regiment or the Association. Specifically, such individuals could be federal, state, or local government officials, military members from a different department or branch, industry partners, or community leaders deserving special recognition. The justification for this award is based primarily on their long term relationship with the Regiment.

The Gold Order of Mercury will honor any Signal Soldier who died while deployed to or as a direct result of injuries or illness sustained in a GWOT Theater. In addition to those soldiers who are deployed to a GWOT Theater of Operations, the Gold Order of Mercury is also available for those soldiers who are killed in the line of duty or died from injuries or illness sustained by any terrorist action anywhere in the world and validated as such by the National Signal Corps Regimental Association Board of Directors.
